Product Information

While rappers may be flexing clout goggles in all sincerity, it’s impossible to ignore that clout goggles have quickly become meme fodder at best. He was spotted wearing the look back in 2017 and responded to a compliment of his shades by saying, “these ain’t glasses … these clout goggles. People on the Internet, especially tech journalist on Twitter, treated Klout as a joke while Silicon Valley did its typical Silicon Valley thing and venerated Klout like something that actually mattered. As such, it’s difficult for designers to take preventative measures, but it is possible for them to embrace meme status as beneficial to the brand.

It’s just a matter of time before those loyal Kurt fans and ‘90s grunge lovers will start sporting them again.

Instead of following what everyone else is doing, you might want to try to become more of a trend setter. In the past, they were popularly known as Kurt Cobain shades due to the late musician’s penchant for them. What Curry doesn’t do in his video is explain why wearing a pair of these oblong shades will boost the wearer’s clout.

And while he may have started as an entirely new musical genre, it certainly never felt like fashion was his focus. The last time they were a fashion trend, they were worn by people who couldn’t care less about having clout at all. Some credit the trend’s foundation to Lil Yachty’s April 2016 interview on CNN, in which he thanks Lil B for turning him on to Bernie Sanders. At the time, Kurt was more of an anti-fashion guy, who could usually be found rocking sloppy oversized sweaters and ripped jeans. If the summer of 1967 is known as the Summer of Love, then perhaps the summer of 2017 will be known in the decades to come as the Summer of Clout.
