BRAND IN FOCUS: Paul Smith Eyewear 👓

Starting 2025 on a high with a new and exciting brand!
Launched in 1994, Paul Smith eyewear feature classic designs with a modern twist, meticulous attention to detail, and superb materials that link back to the brand’s roots. Stripes that are inspired by expressionist art, have been central to Paul Smith’s designs since the early days of the company. The stripes are visible as a bold print or as a subtle detail that can be spotted on many of his frames.

The range is manufactured in Italy and features frames made from high-quality metals and Italian Mazzuchelli acetates.

Fun fact: Many celebrities adore Paul Smith eyewear, with names such as Beyoncé, Katie Holmes, and Kylie Jenner often making public appearances in the glasses and shades.

We’ve got many new Paul Smith frames on the shelves, so pop in to try them on! 😍

Protect your eyes with our wide range of sunglasses!🌞

Not staring directly into the sun isn’t enough. Long-term UV exposure can lead to serious vision issues like cataracts or macular degeneration. Sunglasses are essential, as they absorb UV rays to protect your eyes.

Enjoy 20% off prescription sunglasses (Excluding MauiJim and Zeal) until the end of February!
