It all started with one Twitter user, @neo_matlanyane who asked #GirlsTalkZa where could she get a pair of yellow safety glasses, seeing that the likes of Tumi Matha, a freelance fashion stylist have turned the safety goggles into a fashionable accessory.
S/O to @neo_matlanyane for making us see the fashionable side of protective clothes available at our stores. 😜 pic.twitter.com/id0qkCNdBD

The response is something we really didn’t expect! Those hot ‘sunglasses’ are actually Evrigard wrap around anti-scratch spectacles found at Builders, a construction warehouse.

Many have since jumped on the trend and the safety glasses are now used to mark a fashion statement.
