Woodies Walnut Wood Sunglasses with Polarized Lens for Men and Women

Product Information

This pair of light weight bamboo frames from Woodword has a deep mahogany color, giving them a unique look that’s both more masculine and (in my opinion) more sophisticated. Easily one of the most sophisticated-looking pairs on this list, these half-rim shades from Woodies are another pair modelled after the famous Ray-Ban Clubmaster. The keyhole shape on the bridge of the nose and the double dots on the rivet (which is the name for the little symbol that often appears in the corner of glasses frames). So, you have a pair of sunglasses, but you really didn’t pay attention when you bought them if they were polarized or no. How do you know if they’re polarized? Made with zebra wood arms, on this pair the colorful lenses are set within clear acetate, which help both the wooden shades (and you) stand out.

Unfortunately, while the sheer quantity of wood frame sunglasses has been exploding at a crazy clip, the quality of these shades varies pretty wildly. Alfie - A unisex, wood (dark bamboo) and acetate design that mimics the classic wayfarer style, but with an edge because of the combination of materials.

In addition to being significantly cheaper than a typical pair of sunglasses from the major sunglass brands, wood sunglasses also give you a cool, rugged and natural look that feels both stylish and down-to-earth. I’ve got a great reddit post which I wrote all about this. What have been the most influential books, podcasts, or other resources? Choosing a pair of sunglasses can be a confusing journey. With so many shapes, brands, and styles out there, there’s something for everybody. And with such a vast array of options to choose from, making the right choice is often hard. But there’s one question that always comes to mind - should you go with polarized or non-polarized lenses ?

In addition to a perfect medium-brown maple wood color, the arms are engraved with a unique pattern you won’t find on other wooden sunglasses, while the rims are layered with a pop of color that adds a fun further distinction. The 6 models have deliciously (and slightly obscure) British names - Alfie, Murphy, Riley, Ollie, Monty, and Hartley.From the original to a (pretty damn handsome) homage, The Hamptons model from EyeBuyDirect is a popular choice, and for good reasons: They boast a clear frame, which is very popular at the moment, polarized anti-reflective lenses that are also UV-protected, and their signature wood temples, which are handmade from real walnut wood. Business is doing great today, we almost reached 4 million in sales last year, even though my profit on that was a lot lower than you’d think. I just went to China and found three suppliers on Alibaba. I toured each factory and chose the one I felt the best about.

One of the most significant benefits of polarization is that it eliminates glare. If you spend long hours outside in the harsh sun, glare can be pretty frustrating to deal with. These shades are pretty well-crafted, they fit nicely, and do a great job at filtering the sun while also providing amazing clarity. They’re also super stylish and affordable. I also like the details on these frames – the arms and inner rims reveal the lighter-colored inner layer of wood, making for a cool contrast that adds an extra stylish touch. Ollie - another combination of wood and acetate in a wayfarer style design. The contrast between the bamboo wood and white acetate gives them a very distinctive look that will definitely get you noticed.Rough-sea approved and made from eco-friendly material, this is one of the coolest sunglasses on the market right now–and one of our favorites too! EyeBuyDirect’s Sergi model doesn’t use wood for the full frame. Instead, it combines acetate lens rims with wood arms for a sharp-looking hybrid pair. Many of the wood frames on this list were inspired by classic Ray-Ban designs, but this is one of the few pairs of wooden sunglasses actually made by the iconic company itself. While this may not be acceptable to wooden sunglass purists (which, believe it or not, is a category of people that does in fact exist), it does offer a few benefits. It combines a metallic frame with wood-lined lenses, and is available in both walnut wood and zebra wood.

As a company that makes sunglasses, our expertise shows that it’s worth to polarize only prescription sunglasses . PRO TIP: If you visit a Chinese factory, ask politely to the use the bathroom. They will have to oblige, and if you find a really messy, disgusting bathroom, then it’s definitely a red flag. Another pair that owes its design template to Ray Ban, this classically shaped pair from 4EST (get it?) should satisfy anyone in the market for wood wayfarer sunglasses.Riley - this 60s Aviator inspired design is also made from zebrano wood, but the smooth, rounded edges give them a softer look. I set my sights high and decided I wanted to hire Kendall Jenner for the video shoot. It started out as a joke really.
