WHY BAMBOO SUNGLASSES?  

Sunglasses have traditionally been made from harmful plastics and metals through environmentally damaging manufacturing processes.

In recent years, advancements in technology have allowed bamboo fiber to be used in a wide range of textile and fashion applications. Bamboo is quickly becoming one of the most important plants in the world.

ABOUT JOPLINS

We launched JOPLINS believing that there is no reason why stylish sunglasses can't also be environmentally friendly. We are making a new sustainable movement - sunglasses made of bamboo. We are willing to develop an eco-friendly business in an industry that is huge. Everyone likes and wears sunglasses. So why not be sustainable and stylish at the same time? 

THE JOPLINS WAYFARERS

FLOATS IN THE WATER

They float! Whenever you are paddle boarding, wakeboarding or even surfing, you can count on your Joplins to be floating right next to you in case you fall. :)

LIGHTWEIGHT

The JOPLINS Wayfarers made of bamboo, which is lighter than aluminum, acetate, wood, and polycarbonate sunglasses, is very comfortable, they almost feel weightless on your face.
 

POLARIZED LENSES W/ 9 LAYERS OF PROTECTION

UNIQUE

They are a new concept and unique! This means your sunglasses will never be quite like other pairs around.

RESISTANT 

 Bamboo is very resistant and is nowadays used in many applications, such as house construction, bicycles, roads, bridges, furniture, etc. It is also resistant to humidity, so you can submerge it in the water as many times as you want.
 

QUALITY DESIGN

They embody the vibe our brand wants to emanate: cool, light, and eco-friendly, while also connected with purpose and simplicity. We’ve been praised for simplicity and smoothness in everything we do. ***We also ensure attention to detail regarding quality in order to continue offering you a world-class product.***
 

DOUBLE FLEXED HINGES

The Double flexed hinges make the JOPLINS flexible, offering a better fit and comfort to your head. Whatever your head size is, we will have a pair of sunglasses for you.
 

SUSTAINABLE

Bamboo is 100% sustainable - when cutting past the first node it continues to grow normally. It is cost efficient, requires no irrigation, rarely needs replanting, grows rapidly, can be harvested in 3-5 years, grows in a wide range of environments and it produces 35% more oxygen than an equivalent stand of trees. In addition, bamboo is biodegradable.
