Spitfire Sunglasses in Canada — London's Boldest Eyewear
Spitfire is the independent London-based eyewear label founded in the early 1990s out of Camden Market — the street-first sunglasses brand that gave every generation of UK musicians, skaters, and subcultural icons their most recognisable look. Liam Gallagher wore Spitfire. Damon Albarn wore Spitfire. The Libertines, Arctic Monkeys, every wave of British indie and rock has gone through Spitfire eyewear because nobody else makes sunglasses that bold in that price range.
Gallery Streetwear is a curated Canadian stockist for Spitfire Sunglasses. We carry the key silhouettes in our Kelowna store and online with free tracked shipping across Canada.
What Spitfire makes
- Cut Series (Cut 108, Cut 122) — chunky flat-bridge acetate frames. The silhouette Liam Gallagher wore throughout the Oasis reunion and the piece that defined the UK indie look of the 2000s.
- BC Series — classic square acetate. Versatile everyday silhouette.
- Born to Lose — aviator with a slight retro-futurist edge.
- Alpha One — rectangular acetate with distinct silver detailing.
- Sonic Boom, Ambush, Trip Hop — seasonal silhouettes that rotate through the line-up.
Why Spitfire matters
Most indie eyewear brands live in one of two lanes — either disposable fast-fashion sunglasses or premium-priced designer brands. Spitfire sits in the rare third lane: bold, optically-correct, acetate-built sunglasses that cost less than half of a Chimi or Ray-Ban while holding their own on construction. Spring-hinge arms, 100% UVA/UVB protection, and hard cases included on every pair.
Spitfire fit
Spitfire frames are cut slightly oversized by design. The Cut 122 measures 60-15-145mm, so it sits big on most faces — that's the point. For narrower faces, the BC and Born to Lose silhouettes are less oversized. All frames are adjustable — we can heat-fit the nose and arm bend in-store if you need tighter frame pressure.
Styling Spitfire
Spitfire Cuts pair perfectly with Loviah or Polar Skate Co baggy denim, Adidas Samba, or New Balance 550. For a golf-meets-streetwear rotation, pair Spitfire BC with Malbon Golf trousers.
