Brigada Eyewear has arrived here at Active, and it looks awesome. In case you aren’t familiar with what these sunglasses are all about, read this brief description that was sent to us by none other than Erik Ellington himself.

“Brigada eyewear was first conceived in early 2006 by Jim Greco, Andrew Reynolds, Terry Kennedy and myself. Since there were no skateboarder owned and operated sunglass companies we all got together and thought, “we all wear sunglasses, why not start our own company?” Together we came up with the name Brigada (meaning brigade or crew), sketched up our logo a local diner down the street and gathered up all of our ideas of the stuff we wanted to see made. Before we knew it we had something real and people were starting to take notice to it. It seems like forever since we received the first samples over a year ago but we’ve come a long way and we’re all really proud of what we’ve created and made a reality. So check out a pair of brigadas and see for yourself what im talkin about…”
