New at SWELL: Epokhe Eyewear

New at SWELL: Epokhe
Raw and refined, Epokhe (pronounced E poke E ) embraces suspension: where all judgments about the existence of the external world, and consequently all action in the world, is suspended. And when we heard that some of surfing’s top influencers (Kai Neville, Dion Agius, Mitch Coleborn and Creed McTaggart) were launching an eyewear line, suspense is exactly what we were in.

G0005M9F
The first collection delivered the goods in an unanticipated, logo-free fashion. Epokhe melds matte black, ultra premium materials, and a nod to classic rock cover art to create a line that evokes…what’s that word again…oh yes, “suspense.”

View the Collection Here: Epokhe Eyewear

WIN IT: Enter to win a pair of Epokhe Anteka Shades HERE, today only.
