I was 10 in 1995. Even at 10, I wouldn’t be caught dead wearing those glasses that scream being “too girly.” I use the term GIRLY because as a child, I didn’t think twice of using questionable language that implied homosexuality.
I don’t agree that they look stupid. They’re kitsch, they’re gimmicky, but there’s an appeal there that goes beyond a wrestling gimmick. They wouldn’t look out of place at a club during 80’s night. They’re certainly more valuable than the WCW Hardcore title replica, for example.
I remember some reporter from Summerslam 1992 in London saying he bought a pair of Bret the Hitman Hart wraparound sunglasses and when he wore them out on the street, he walked right into people and lamppost because he almost couldn’t see a damned thing.
Not only are they unisex, if you wear them it guarantees you no-a-sex. Those look like something that even big haired day Sable would think is too tacky to wear.

Were the Shawn Michaels sunglasses just as bad?

The crappiest thing about them is that they’re not even all that heart-shaped.
Or is that just me?
They are definitely suck-shaped, that’s for sure…
No actually, they look more triangle shaped than heart shaped.
Perfect to wear when escorted around by a tall man. Wait.
A tall man dressed like a biker(with leather pants no less)
I’ll admit it, I got my mom to buy them for me when I was a kid. Buuuut….I got some use out of them years later.

There was a kid in my middle school class who wore these AND the red glove that accompanied them every single day…he was quite the dork.
Totally had these. Totally wore them in public. Totally had lived a lifetime of regrets by the time I graduated.
