Prepidemic Promotes: Warby Parker Eyewear

Glasses, Specs, Spectacles, Bifocals, Goggles, Blinkers, Eyewear, Frames. Whatever you call them, they’re important–especially if you can’t see past your hand without them. The thing about glasses is that a lot of guys associate them so strongly with their functionality, that the thought of attractive-looking specs doesn’t even cross their mind. For guys that need glasses, and even for those who don’t, they’re one of the greatest accessories as they can really transform your whole look.

But it’s hard to get your first pair of glasses. What’s going to look good on me? What will people think of my new eyewear? Well, you could go to Oliver Peoples or any number of stores and try on their frames. You can look at yourself in the mirror and have the salespeople tell you how you look…or you could check out Warby Parker. The online eyewear distributor is making things a lot easier for all of us. You can order 5 pairs of their glasses and take a 10 day trial before you make your decision. This is especially awesome for guys who are looking to buy their first pair of specs.

Warby Parker is using the direct sales model popularized by guys like Company of We who cut out the middleman to give you their goods for a fraction of designer prices. How much you ask? $95–regardless of what prescription you need. This is about a third of the price of what you would be paying for a pair of Purple Labels. We also like to promote a good cause and we think it’s great that Warby Parker donates a pair of glasses to someone in need for every pair they sell. So go ahead and test drive a few, you’ll be surprised how much you like them.
