Cazal Legends

Cazal Legends History

CAZAL is a legendary cult eyewear firm created by Austrian Carl Zalloni (CArl ZALloni) in 1979. Little did he imagine though that not long after his first creation, his brand would be synonymous with hip-hop, rap and break-dance. “Made in Germany” tag on sunglasses that we inevitably relate to New York boroughs like Harlem or the Bronx.

It was not until Darry McDaniels from Run-DMC was seen wearing the 607 model (one of the first pairs produced by Zalloni) around 1982 that Cazal’s name started to enjoy huge success among the hip-hop community in the States. In fact, it is said that to some extent Zalloni was one of the creators of this movement’s singular look.

Thus, CAZAL Legends have absolute cult status easily recognizable by hip-hop style of the 80s which is still up to date.

Cazal Legends Nowadays

Cazal sunglasses are much more than an accessory that protects your eyes from the harmful rays of the sun. They are a statement of individuality and a symbol of status, a piece that changes your outfit completely and makes you feel strong, special and authentic. Over the years Cazal has become the go-to brand for musicians, actors and film stylists.

But, fortunately, you don’t need to be a rapper or an eccentric celebrity to look great in them! Their thick acetate frames and bold design, their high-quality materials and excessive lines maybe not be the right option for everyone, but they are undeniably the right choice for those looking for a vintage flair or those who want to transmit a special aura of confidence and sophistication.
