The Yaletown - a revolutionary new pair of wooden sunglasses with a prescription lens compatible frame.

Introducing the highest quality sunglasses we've ever produced, hand-crafted from multiple layers of walnut and maple wood.

☀ THE MOST ADVANCED WOODEN SUNGLASSES ON THE MARKET

Multi-layer construction makes the frame of the Yaletown much more flexible than solid wood frames and also unbreakable when they're dropped on the ground.

☀ TOP OF THE LINE OPTICALLY CORRECT LENSES

We've spared no expense with our brand new UV400 rated CLARITY A/R Polarized lenses. They are 100% optically correct across the whole lens and provide full UVA and UVB protection. They're made of super tough, ultra lightweight nylon and weigh half the weight of traditional glass lenses. They also have twice the scratch resistance of glass lenses and can withstand any impact you can throw at them.

THE LATEST POLARIZATION MANUFACTURING PROCESS

Polarized lenses block harmful glare from reflective surfaces like water and snow, reduce eye strain and even help you see objects beneath the surface of the ocean. Our lenses have been manufactured using the latest technique where the tint and polarization layers are built into the lens as opposed to being a coating which could flake or bubble over time. You will enjoy an incredibly crisp, clear view in all light conditions. Seeing is believing!

☀ PRESCRIPTION LENS COMPATIBLE

The Yaletown frame features two discreet screws which can be undone allowing an optometrist to switch out the lenses for prescription ones.

☀ LIFEPROOF, UNBREAKABLE FRAMES

The new frame construction makes the Yaletown unbreakable (under normal use conditions). It has been drop tested from 10 feet.

☀ SAY NO TO PLASTIC

Do you really want to buy yet another pair of oil based plastic sunglasses when you could be wearing beautiful, natural fibres against your skin?

 ☀ SUPER COMFY

Stainless steel Rx quality hinges allow the frame to flex outwards so the arms won't pinch the side of your face. Enjoy a snug and very comfortable fit regardless of face shape.

☀ INCREDIBLY LIGHTWEIGHT

Weighing only 21 grams, the Yaletown is one of the lightest glasses frames on the market.

☀ THEY LOOK GOOD ON EVERYONE

Everyone needs a pair of classic style sunglasses in their lives. The iconic style frame has stood the test of time and suits everyone...and when you look good, good things happen ;-)

Great but...

I love my Yaletowns. This is the third pair that I've bought. The first got chewed up by a dog (he did not pass service dog school), the second got dropped onto a concrete floor and broke. They tolerated a lot of abuse before that, and are currently held together with crazy glue. This pair broke before I ever wore them - I was having prescription lenses put in them, and they broke at the factory. The style of the glasses and customer service are great, but the frames are a bit more fragile than I expected.
