Default Olde Skool KD's?

hey

i need some info from some of the old skoolers ( like me) out there
years ago ( in the late 70s early 80s) KD sunglasses had a style ( or maybe it was some other manufacturer) that had alot narrower lenses than they have today. same black plastic frames, except that the lenses were much narrower.


anyone got any idea where one might find this style of shades?

i personally cant stand the crappy shades they have on the market today, like the wrap around crap. the smaller KD style used frame your eye socket just perfectly and cut about 98% of the wind out.

anyone have any idea where these might be found today? id probably buy 10 pairs if i could find them but havent a clue where to start looking.
