Blenders Eyewear, a brand synonymous with vibrant and bold eyewear, has recently launched a limited edition collection of sunglasses titled “Twelve LTD.” This collection is a special tribute to the San Diego State University (SDSU) men’s basketball team and marks Blenders’ 12-year anniversary. With only 300 pairs produced, these sunglasses are not only a stylish accessory but also a symbol of support for collegiate athletics, with all proceeds benefiting the MESA Foundation’s support of SDSU student-athletes.
What Makes the “Twelve LTD” Sunglasses Unique?
The “Twelve LTD” sunglasses are a remarkable blend of style, history, and purpose. Crafted with precision, these sunglasses feature a crystal black and red design—a nod to SDSU’s team colors. The lenses are designed for both style and protection, making them ideal for the sun-soaked lifestyle that Blenders Eyewear embodies.
Each pair is individually numbered, reinforcing its exclusivity and making it a true collector’s item. The limited run of just 300 pairs means that owning a set of these sunglasses is a rare opportunity, further enhanced by the connection to SDSU’s basketball legacy.
Supporting a Cause
In addition to being a fashionable statement, the “Twelve LTD” sunglasses carry a significant philanthropic purpose. All profits from the sale of these sunglasses are directed to the MESA Foundation, which is the first official NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) partner of San Diego State Athletics. The foundation is dedicated to supporting Aztec men’s basketball student-athletes, providing them with resources that contribute to their success both on and off the court.
Why These Sunglasses Matter to Collectors
For collectors and enthusiasts, the appeal of the “Twelve LTD” sunglasses goes beyond their sleek design and limited availability. The connection to a renowned basketball program and the charitable aspect make these sunglasses a meaningful addition to any collection. They represent a moment in time—Blenders Eyewear’s milestone anniversary and the ongoing evolution of NIL partnerships in collegiate sports.
The “Twelve LTD” sunglasses by Blenders Eyewear exemplify what makes limited edition releases so compelling. With only 300 pairs in existence, each one symbolizes a unique blend of fashion, sports history, and charitable giving. For those lucky enough to have secured a pair, these sunglasses are more than just eyewear—they are a piece of San Diego State basketball legacy and a testament to the power of community support through fashion.
