Sustainable surf / snow /skate brand Epicstoke is changing that by kicking out the middleman and offering customizable, polarized, and environmentally friendly wayfarer style Carvers sunglasses for as low as $39 per pair with a 7-in-1-option of obtaining interchangeable lenses with 7 different tints for all weather types. The company is turning the renewable resources cotton and tree pulp into cellulose acetate, which is considered the highest quality plastic for eyewear. Like a samurai sword, the plastic is layered into large sheets, folded many times for added strength, and then individually hand carved. As a result, the bio-plastic is strong, lightweight, hypoallergenic, and has a natural soft organic feel.
Other Sustainable Options For Sunglasses
Another innovative company that has developed sustainable products to help reduce the environmental footprint of consumerism is the The Sunglass Fix.
The most common reason people throw away their sunglasses is because their lenses break or get badly scratched. Many people believe that once their lenses are damaged then that’s it, they have to throw them away.
This is where the Sunglass Fix comes in. For a fraction of the cost you can choose from thousands of different sunglass lens models and styles and find your favourite glasses from Arnette lenses to Ray Ban lenses, they have you covered. Even if you have a very unique or specialised pair of sunglasses the Sunglass Fix can create custom lenses to suit any shape of lenses.
This company is doing their bit to help make peoples goods last longer meaning less consumption and consumerism which in turn is having a positive impact on the planet for us all.
