Persol make some of the best and coolest sunglasses available today, a quality pair of which comprise an essential tool in any serious driver’s glovebox or center console kit. Though great looking as an entity unto themselves, their series designed in conjunction with legendary coachbuilders Pininfarina ratchet the style and exclusivity up another notch.

Here we link a few of our favorites found on eBay. They make a great alternative to the more usual suspects, and the Pininfarina association certainly doesn’t hurt either.

For sure there are plenty of options on a budget, these are very cool but indeed pricey. Definitely a collector’s item.

Have you guys done a spread on say…a top 10 pick of driving glasses, or driving gloves? I think that would go over pretty well. With those types of lists, someone always feels like the list is incomplete, but it’s a great way of discovering new products.

If you do, please have some affordable options too! I don’t think I can justify $500 on a pair of sunglasses. Those are really cool but I’ll stick to the 80’s Vaurnets I got from my Dad!

If you watch Ebay closely these pop up for around $100. In fact a few days ago a bunch ended for $90.
