With a distinct sense of pride and place, Independent Eyewear brands belong to… YOU. Increasingly, consumers are looking to exert their personal tastes in ways and means not dependent on the usual brew of designer and lifestyle brands. That means you get the chance to do some eyewear educating based totally on… the Eyewear! Refreshing, right?! So step right up and declare YOUR independence.
