Is Bono switching up his shades?

The Columbus Dispatch reports that trends in eyeglasses for spring are going in circles.

How does this impact the most famous shade-wearing front-man? Apparently he’s changing with the times. He was recently seen in France wearing a pair of more conservative specs.

No word yet on whether the new look will carry through to next year’s tour.

    Those will take some getting used to. But then so will his new haircut.

    If he’ll wear a blue version of those shades we’ll see a Bono Lennon!! Well, they looked good on John, but I’m not pretty sure they’ll look good on Bono!!

    Please God, don’t make him wear them!!

    I’m not buying a tour next year until I see an official annoucement.

    he wore pink ones at sundance and he still looked as good as always. I think people are just more used to the wrap around ones. But to me it doesn’t really matter because he is still the same great guy no matter what he wears.

    He actually did wore a blue version of those ones in the ¨Ronnie Drew¨ video. I think.

    Quote Moises- Yes I remember that time… and in a few sightings before, he was wearing the blue ones too….
    I don’t really like them…. I had a strange, bad experience of John Lennon (I dreamt I killed him! It was horrible! :/) So, everytime something Lennony happens I freak out…

    Anyway, hope Bono sticks to his wrap around shades :D
