Tim is Wearing Glasses (We Swear)

Tim grabbed a fine pair of titanium (one of a kind, mind you) specs. Although you can't see his specs, we swear they exist.

Plan on Managing a Casino?


These vintage pit boss shades are a MUST if your going to Nevada (Although the Gaming Commission will be all over you). The bottom pair is by Carrera, of course, and the top pair is a model called "Spirit" by Firenza. Both have 100% UV lens protection. Call or email us for price.

The Key To Looking Swell:

My old friend Key stopped by GB to obtain a pair of the infamous 1960's prison frames, with his RX. They look swell on him!

A Visit From The Felluhs:



My pals Slim and Commander Angry stopped by GB for a quick adjustment on their glasses and a splash. In the bottom two pics, Commander Angry and I challenged ourselves to have extremely un-photogenic shots taken of us. To our dismay, t'was NOT as big of a challenge as we'd hoped. Actually, we realized we should never have our pictures taken ever again and we should probably retire from society altogether.

NOT Your Mom's Shades:

No, they're not your mom's shades... They're either your granny's or your sister's shades because it SKIPS a generation. We at GB specialize in glasses for the fellers, but we procure some ladies' items from time to time. These amazing 1970's glasses are black with metallic orange swirly whirls in them! Yep. Swirly whirls. Perfect for Autumn, right? They have gray gradient 100% UV lenses and the cost is $150. Call or email us to order via credit card.

David Takes Optics Seriously:

That's why he came into GB... To finish his "handsoming up" procedure. We all like fine loafers, watches and slacks but the first accessory one can express himself with is a swell pair of glasses. It's where people are looking when they talk to you, you old so and so!

Handsome + Well Read= Chris


With his new specs, Chris looks great! We chatted with him for a while about American history and we feel that he knows waaaay more but it could also be the new glasses that make him LOOK like he knows more. No, he knows more. Bully for Chris!

Farley Deep in Thought (about winning):

Our new pal Farley just picked up some fine vintage Pierre Cardin tennis shades and now he's thinking how good of a decision t'was. We estimate his tennis game got at least 30% better.

Matt and Justin Relax:

Matt and Justin stopped by GB to snatch some shades, pipes and a splash. They don't mind relaxing. Why should YOU?

Score= Sheldon: Three, GB: Zero


It's really good that Sheldon did not stop over to GB wearing a fine seersucker suit. Yeah, that's really good. Because he always big times us with his luxuriosity. And furthermore, he doesn't even own a super swell seersucker suit. Because it sucks the dignity outta everyone nearby within a 20 foot blast radius. He must be outta town. He did not stop by. Oh wait. He did.

John Goes To Creepsville:

Our pal John, big shot music video director, enjoys the finer things in life. Luxurious garments, shiny jewels, comfortable loafers, and of course sleezy, scumbagish, casino manager sunglasses. Basically, when John enters the room in these newly purchased vintage Gucci shades, nobody feels safe. Not even the Ninja in the movie Revenge of The Ninja! Or even the other Ninja from Revenge of The Ninja that the first Ninja is getting revenge on! Ya see? Not even NINJAS are safe. Hope you're happy with yourself, John. We at Gentlemen's Breakfast sure are. FYI John, my cement shoe size runs half a size large.

GB in Los Angeles Mag (again):

Yes, we made it into L.A. Mag again. Go buy the September issue, ya cheapskate!
