Santo Studio Founding Design Team Unveils Paul "P-Rod" Rodriguez's Signature Eyewear Collection
Skateboarding icon Paul "P-Rod" Rodriguez joins Santo Studio's founding design team to reimagine eyewear by bringing culture and style to the forefront. The Forma Sunglasses - P-Rod Edition elevates the classic silhouette of everyday eyewear through authentic Italian craftsmanship.
"I just look for things out there that feel authentic to me. I don't chase trends," shares Rodriguez. "I don't just try to do what everybody is doing just because it's cool in the moment. If I like it, I like it."
Crafted with high-quality Italian cellulose acetate, the sunglasses feature polarized lenses, 100% UV/UVB protection, and sturdy 7-barrel steel hinges.
Each pair includes precision 3-D laser engraving and comes with a custom signature Paul Rodriguez eyewear pouch.
As a founding design team member, Rodriguez worked alongside Santo Studio to create eyewear that transcends fashion—blending classic silhouettes with luxury touches that perform in real-world conditions.
The name "Forma" itself carries meaning, translating from Italian as "to give shape," reflecting PRod's significant history in skateboarding innovation.
The Forma Sunglasses - PRod Edition are now available exclusively at the Santo Studio Newport Beach flagship store and online at santostudio.com.
