Wooden sunglasses by Proof
We love just about everything involving wood, so these wooden sunglasses by Proof are definately on our wish list for this summer. As the brand itself states: ‘We think that the wood medium adds a warmth and look that other materials can’t replicate.’ The glasses are handmade from 100% natural sustainable bamboo or ebony wood.
The wooden wearables are available in ten designs, including some vintage-inspired classics, often with a modern twist. Proof only uses wood species that are harvested in a sustainable manner. Next to that they offer a sunglass-recycling program and even their packaging is eco-friendly. ‘We strive to look for opportunities to reduce our impact on the environment whenever possible.’ You will not only look good, but even do good when purchasing a pair of Proof sunglasses: a share of the sale of each pair of glasses is used to support eye clinics in India, education in developing countries, and re-planting trees in Haiti.
