            Frame and Lens Information

            Our cork frames were born from a customer’s request for eyewear that floats - and it delivers. Each pair is:

            - Handcrafted from recycled cork, fabric off-cuts & recycled plastic

            - Lightweight, durable and surprisingly buoyant (yes, they float and bounce)

            - Finished with premium mineral glass lenses and robust spring hinges

            Every frame is pressed under 15 tons of pressure at 90°C, bonded with a bio-resin made from 40% tree sap. The result? Frames that are lightweight, resilient and built to move with you - without compromising on comfort or sustainability.

            Wear with Purpose

            - Certified B Corporation & 1% for the Planet contributor.

            - Buy One, Give One: For every frame sold we donate a frame to a school child in need of readers.

            - One tree planted per pair, making production & shipping carbon positive.

            Prescription

            Full Service: Order online and reply to your order confirmation email with your prescription details. Our partner optometrist will handle your lens fitting.

            The DIY Route: Select 'No Prescription' to buy the frames lens-ready and take them to your own optometrist to be fitted.

            In-Store: Pop into our Cape Town workshop with your script in hand and we’ll handle the rest.

            “What an amazing company, I bought a pair of sunglasses six months ago and damaged them quite badly, they repaired them in a few short hours for me as I was only in Cape Town for two days. I'm so incredibly impressed.”

            “I stumbled upon the shop in Cape Town and found the designs very original. I got myself a pair of shades... made in Cape Town, upcycled and the buy one-give one programme gave a meaningful sense to my purchase.”
