We at hewn have a simple goal: construct stylish wooden sunglasses that feature superior craftsmanship.
Our journey started when we purchased a pair of wooden sunglasses but were disappointed in the quality. We tried many different pairs of wooden sunglasses, but we were unable to find any that left us satisfied. Every pair we tried either were poor quality or fantastically expensive. We knew there had to be a better way so we set out to build our own.

We designed dozens of pairs each with minor variances in sizing, thickness, manufacturing process, and of course species of wood. Wood is a beautiful, natural material and each species has its own character. After much research, many discarded prototypes, and many late nights, we proudly present the hewn collection:

What makes us different?
We have put a tremendous amount of effort into designing a sunglass that is higher quality. A unique hinge design embedded in the wood keeps the arms firmly in place with no wiggle. The base curve of the sunglass is slightly higher so that they stay closer to your face and feel more comfortable. Our lenses are polarized to reduce glare and provide high contrast. A microfiber pouch that serves as a cleaning cloth as well as a hard, durable case are included with every pair. All orders have free shipping within the United States!

Due to the handmade process and unique nature of wood, the sunglasses you receive will vary slightly from the images here. We are hoping to begin production as soon as the campaign reaches its goal and estimate it will take approximately one month once the funds have been raised.
Several people have asked about international shipping. If you are purchasing from outside the USA, please add $18 to cover shipping.
