With our first design, we sought to change the way optical frames look and feel; not just by the product itself, but through the honest, thoughtful approach to creating it.
Our unprecedented use of a familiar material — laminated maple temples cut from a retired skateboard — rooted our business in the idea that glasses can be more than just functional accessories.
Today, DRIFT pays homage to a broad field of influence, from the architecturally inspired steel core of our wood temple, to the resonant beauty of the Delta Blues. Each design is embodied with a character and beauty of its own.
