They aren't devo, per say, but you know what I'm talking about. They were like a headband that fell off your head and rested on the bridge of your nose [Smile]

Half-circle with "Cyclops from the X-Men" single lens slit that runs all the way across the eyes.

You can find knockoffs now, but they all have two seperate lens "strips" with the frame splitting the lenses in the center...and thats BULL****! [Big Grin]

Does anyone know what in the hell those things were called back in the day? (I called em New Wave Sunglasses, while I personally rocked out to some blue tortoise Ray Bans)..

Anyone? Anyone?
HERE WE GO...Score...a direct hit [Big Grin]

No, but I am here to offer you the best of luck. I had an 80s party a few years back and went nuts trying to find those DEVO flower pot hats. You would think with eBay and the World Wide Web they would be a mouse-click away but NOPE. Apparently, DEVO owns the only ones ever made. Hahaha.

Meh, getting a LITTLE pricy for $.40 cents worth of Taiwanese plastic [Smile] can't tell if the lenses are scratched or scuffed from that pic, either.

Oh well, someday SOMEONE will re-make these! [Smile]
