For the past 1,000 years, humans have used eyewear to protect and enhance vision, with some of the earliest forms being the snow goggles worn by the Inuit and Yupik peoples of the Arctic. From the use of hand-held magnifying lenses by Italian artists and scholars in the 13th century to the invention of bifocal lenses by American statesman and inventor Benjamin Franklin in 1784, eyewear technology has advanced dramatically.

Coral Eyewear is a viable and designer eyewear brand that uses infinitely recyclable frames to create a circular economy. All frames are handmade by Italian artisans from recycled materials such as rescued ocean fishing nets and fabric scraps from landfills. British design ensures that sustainability does not mean sacrificing style.

It is an example of a company taking responsibility for the creation 

and eventual disposal of its products. Because of the properties of regenerated nylon, the frames can be recycled indefinitely without losing quality, and customers can send their frames back to Coral for recycling. In addition, to encourage the adoption of this circular economy solution, the brand will send you a generous 10% discount on your next frame.

It debuted in late 2020, and they have been working hard to deliver on its "Style Without Compromise mission." Sustainable fashion is rapidly expanding, and they believe they are leading the way in the eyewear industry.

They actively design unisex sunglasses and have an equally split audience between male and female customers. Their sustainable story, product quality, and product design are the three main motivators for purchasing. Additionally, a sizable portion of their audience is sports-obsessed and actively participates in their sports partnership content.
