Conscious consumerism and sustainability is at the heart of Retrospecced and those who shop with us. We redefine how people think about designer eyewear, by combining affordability, sustainability and fabulous style.
Our mission is to is to minimise waste and maximise the lifecycle of high quality eyewear which is often discarded when there is plenty of life left in it. To reduce waste at Retrospecced we focus on reusing and up-cycling pre-loved frames.
By sourcing vintage and gently used frames as well as new unworn deadstock, we are reducing the environmental footprint of eyewear production. You wouldn't think twice about buying a second hand jumper or a pair of vintage shoes, and eyewear should be no different.
Each frame undergoes meticulous refurbishment to ensure it is fit for purpose and looks as good as new. If a frame has stacks of life left in it but the odd blemish, we will describe that in the frame description so you know exactly what you are getting.
Shopping at Retrospecced not only means you help contribute to helping the planet, but it means there are also some great bargains to be had. Because our products are refurbished and up-cycled it means we can offer affordable designer glasses and sunglasses at a fraction of the RRP.
Some of our most popular designer brands include Ray-Ban, Tom Ford, Karen Millen, Gucci and Chanel.
Retrospecced is also a great place to look for discontinued frames, that you may no longer be able to shop from your local optician's, we don't believe in "Seasonal" styles.
If you're looking for eyewear that aligns with your values and budget, then shop at Retrospecced, the home of sustainable eyewear.
