Sustainable Wood Sunglasses
Gafas de sol hechas a mano con bambú sostenible
La mayoría de las gafas de sol son de plástico y pesan mucho. Los aficionados a los deportes acuáticos no suelen llevar gafas de sol para proteger sus sensibles ojos o se arriesgan a perderlas en las profundidades acuáticas. A su vez, contaminan accidentalmente las aguas de todo el mundo por la imposibilidad de recuperarlas. Es adecuado para cualquier persona a la que le guste estar cerca del agua, especialmente los surfistas. Nuestros recursos de madera se derivan de los bosques de bambú sostenibles, innovado con la tecnología para flotar y no hundirse, la mejor protección UV400 y lentes de polarización. No vuelvas a perder un par.
Empresa/Institución
Lit Eyewear
Lit Eyewear is a startup company that wants to reduce the amount of plastics in the world but also wants to promote good eye health for everyone. Microplastics have recently been found in human blood, in the ocean and in the clouds. Wood from the bamboo forests is sustainable because it grows rapidly. Ryan recently created and trademarked Lit Eyewear to help him educate others about Pinguecula and Photokeratitis, while at the same time educate about microplastics and what we can do to help reduce the amount of plastic that is in our lives and in the environment around us.

At an early age I sunburned my blues which is called Photokeratitis. Over time I developed Pinguecula which is a harmless yellowish raised growth on the white part of your eye. It's like a natural callus or a layer of scare tissue. It was formed as a protection. Besides the bump, other common symptoms include eye redness, irritation and dry eye. I was determined to create and design a pair of sunglasses for surfboarding and water enthusiasts meanwhile, sticking to my California roots of offering something that is sustainable and healthy for the environment. Lit Eyewear was born.
