OUR STORY

In 1985 we set up shop in Hastings with one brand of sunglasses, Jones. Those were the days of stifling importing regulations so we brought them to NZ in pieces and put them together ourselves.
From there we set up a second, temporary, shop in Napier in 1988, which just stayed and stayed, in fact we’re still there.
Our range grew. Every couple of years we visit trade shows in Milan and Sydney to keep up with new trends and the latest products.
We have a stable, knowledgeable friendly team who share our passion.
We get involved in our community by supporting fundraising and
sponsoring events.
Now we have shops in the centre of Napier and in Hastings CBD.
We stock a huge range of sunglasses including Dior, Gucci, Tom Ford, Moscot, AM, Ksubi, Colab, Maui Jim, Calvin Klein, Oroton, Bolle, Rayban, Vuarnet, Bill Bass, the infamous Oakley and the much loved Karen Walker.
