You know when I look at those frames I think of the gambinos the Italian mafia who wore those types of glasses which influenced most of those rappers were talking about!

Great documentary about the history and it was good he touched on the slang word gazelles instead of Cazal that everybody used to say even on the West Coast even to this day a lot of people remember them as gazelles...... those would look tight with one of my task force or troop jackets
