[The James Brand](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-james-brand) x RAEN Acetate essentials are products built with the needs of style-conscious explorers alike to keep them prepared when heading out into the wilderness or the urban jungle. The accessories includes the [Wiley sunglasses from RAEN](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-harwood-20) that have been covered in a Sierra Tortoise acetate along with the Elko knife from The James Brand that's finished with the same material. This helps the handy knife to seamlessly match the sunglasses to make the products perfectly suited for carrying together for a cohesive style.

The James Brand x RAEN Acetate essentials address the increasing popularity of [everyday carry (EDC) products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/westy-king-sunglasses) that bring a high-end touch to simple accessories. The sunglasses and pocket knife are priced at $275.
