On the 11th of April 2008 Sabre Vision opened its International concept showroom, DON’T PANIC, in Newport Beach, California. DON’T PANIC, open to the public, showcases limited edition styling, brand collaborations and Sabre apparel, all of which are available for purchase. With an all-black atmosphere, the dark feel to the space is broken by a unique water feature – a toilet fountain. Set to be an incubator for hard to find limited edition Sabre shades as well as a space for creative collaborations and the likes, DON’T PANIC is now open so if you’re in the area, check it out. Visit www.sabrevision.net for photos of the opening night.
