    Yes, some people consider Cartier buffs a Detroit thing. The association between Michigan's largest city and Cartier's buffalo horn sunglasses comes from the many Detroit-area rappers who have sported and rapped about the eyewear. They include the likes of Tee Grizzley, Big Sean and Royce da 5'9". Although buffs are linked to Detroit, they have also come to be connected to hip-hop culture as a whole. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of Cartier sunglasses.
