Bask Eyewear

Bask Eyewear was started on the Gold Coast by Amanda King who loved stealing her husband’s polarised sunglasses but hated how outdated they were. So Amanda decided to create a new brand of polarised sunglasses for men and women that are both fashionable and great for your eye health. Each piece is still drawn and designed by Amanda to this day and she makes sure every pair is tried, tested, and worn for months before they are released.

 

AM Eyewear

Founded in 2003, AM Eyewear is known for its artisan approach to exceptionally crafted eyewear.

With their dedication to both quality and sustainability, they are truly unmatched; if you are looking to find sunglasses that will match your personality with soul, then AM Eyewear is the sunglasses brand for you. Look stylish this season with a pair from their latest collection.

 

Seafolly

Seafolly was started in Sydney in 1975 with their iconic swimwear. But, like us, they knew that at the beach you not only need the perfect swimsuit but also the perfect sunglasses, so Seafolly dived into the world of eyewear. The year-round style of Seafolly sunglasses provides shows their understanding that it is always time for a beach day. Seafolly truly embodies the Australian beach lifestyle and their sunglasses are designed with women in mind with sunnies for everyone, no matter your face shape. Pick up a pair before your next beach day.

 

Spotters

Spotters’ mission is to provide a uniquely Australian product and they are 100% Australian-owned and still a family-run business. Their sunglasses are designed with Australia’s harsh UV rays in mind while still being extremely comfortable using low-allergenic elements. They also make sure to use marine-grade stainless steel screws to ensure that if you take your glasses out on the water, you won’t be dealing with any pesky rust. Next time you go camping or for a hike, there is no better option than Spotters sunglasses.

 

TONIC

Tonic was created specifically with polarisation in mind and with a goal to produce sunglasses that were not only fit for Australian conditions but also pushed the boundaries of optical technology.
