Blue Planet Delmar Sunglasses

California’s top wooden sunglasses brand is Blue Planet and they hail from Santa Barbara. Not only do they make really stylish shades with a minimum of non-recyclable materials but for each pair that you buy they give a pair of glasses to someone in need of them but who couldn’t afford them. That’s why we love them so much.
They also offer one of the widest ranges of lens choices and you can go for anything from maximum UV protection to something lighter for reading in the sunshine.
Everyone should own a pair of Blue Planet glasses.

Woodeer Sunglasses

Woodeer hail from Riga, Lativia and we like their unashamed Eastern European influences in their lines.
They don’t just make polarized sunglasses, either, they also make watches which are the perfect companion to a stylish pair of their shades.
They use a wide range of European woods and we loved their walnut cat eye shades from last year but now, we’re huge fans of the Woodeer Wooden Sunglasses in natural oak wood.

The 4EST sunglasses are made from Maple with 100% polarized shades. And of course, they float!

4EST Shades are cool. They tick alot of the usual boxes. High-quality bamboo? Check. Unique and handmade? Check. Polarized, UV busting lenses? Check.
And they plant two tree with every purchase. Plus, they are priced very reasonably. The eco-friendly bamboo case is a nice touch as well.

GoWood are not cheaply made with stiff plastic hinges like some brands. They are good quality and should last a long time as long as you care for them.

Treetribe

Treetribe sunglasses come with an exceptional quality bamboo frame. Bamboo is natural wood and it is sustainable bamboo. We love bamboo frames and composite, polarized lenses.
We had one of the interns wear them around the office for a few days and they held up well. Clear vision that performed well under a hot sun. They survived a team birthday party intact, so are effectively scratch resistant as well.
Did we mention that because of the porous nature of bamboo, these wood sunglasses will float in water? Great products!
Tree Tribe is an outdoor lifestyle brand inspired by nature that gives back by planting trees with the purchase of every pair.

Wise Owl wooden sunglasses are handcrafted from real wood and each pair is unique. The mixed-media Clubmaster comes in three awesome styles. We really like the wayfarer style with the walnut wood frame.

How To Care For Your New Wood Sunglasses
- Be extra careful unpackaging your new bamboo sunglasses. This is when accidental nicks or scratches on the polarized lenses commonly occur.
- If your particular bamboo sunglasses brand did not provide a protective case or a micro-fiber cloth for cleaning then we highly recommend you go out and purchase them immediately to care for your bamboo sunglasses. They are easy to find products at any sunglasses kiosk in a mall or a variety of sites online.
- Not using your sunglasses? Store them safely in the case. Always protect your lenses.
- Don’t clean the bamboo frame or polarized lenses on your bamboo sunglasses with toxic home-cleaners. Choose an organic cleaning product if possible or use standard sunglass cleaner fluid available at any optometrist. And only use a proper sunglass microfiber on your products for lense cleaning.
- Repair your glasses immediately if damaged or experiencing some wear and tear. Tighten those screws and consider keeping some replacement screws on hand. Take care of your bamboo sunglasses.
