      Frame Information

      Our cork frames were born from a customer’s request for eyewear that floats, and they deliver. Each pair is:

      - Handcrafted in our Woodstock, Cape Town workshop from recycled cork, fabric off-cuts and recycled plastic

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

      - Finished with robust spring hinges

      Every frame is pressed under 15 tons of pressure at 90°C and bonded with a bio-resin made from 40% tree sap. The result: frames that are lightweight, resilient and built to move with you.

      Wear with Purpose

      - Certified B Corporation and 1% for the Planet member.

      - Buy One, Give One: for every frame sold, we give a frame to a schoolchild in need of glasses. Eye tests and lenses are provided by the African Eye Institute.

      - We plant a tree for every pair sold online, and our shipping is carbon positive.

      Shipping & Warranty

      - Free courier shipping on all eyewear, locally and internationally. Orders ship in 2-3 working days.

      - Every pair arrives in a hard magnetic case with a microfibre pouch.

      - 12-month warranty against manufacturing faults (excluding lenses), free lifetime repairs (labour is always free) and easy 30-day returns. Full details

      “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.”
