The Yaletown - a revolutionary new pair of wooden sunglasses with a prescription lens compatible frame.  The frames are made from gorgeous ebony and maple wood, sourced from approved producers.

They include the very best lens technology with UV400 rated CLARITY A/R Polarised lenses. They are 100% optically correct across the whole lens and provide full spectrum UVA and UVB protection. They're made of super tough, ultra lightweight nylon and weigh half the weight of traditional glass lenses. They are manufactured using the latest technique where the tint and polarisation layers are built into the lens instead of being applied as a coating that can bubble over time. They also have twice the scratch resistance of glass lenses and can withstand any impact you can throw at them.

The Yaletown sunglasses are supremely comfortable with spring-loaded hinges to provide a secure but gentle grip. Weighing only 23 grams, we are confident you will find them to be the most comfortable sunglasses you've ever worn.

    Very Happy with this purchase!

    I’ve been looking for a new pair of shades with the following criteria for quite some time:
    Lightweight
    Polarized lenses
    Eco friendly
    Canadian made
    Bamboo or wood frame
    Reasonably priced

    My Wildwood Yaletown sunglasses achieve and succeed all of the above! I LOVE them!!
    Initially I purchased the Original frame, but when they came the frame just didn’t suit my face (too big). Customer service was super easy and friendly to deal with, I shipped them back and went with the Yaletown instead.
    I’ve only had them for a week but so far so good!
    Perfect fit! SUPER light! Love the wood finish! And no pinch points!
    Worth the extra money to upgrade from the Original to the Yaletown but both are awesome.
    I love that this is a 100% Canadian company, using ethically sourced products with a mission and values I support.
    5 stars!

    These fit perfectly and look amazing. They really give a cool beach/natural look which is definitely my style since I'm an east coast guy. The tint is just dark enough that people don't see your eyes from up close which is nice since I don't tend to go for the see-through look. I also wanna give a big shout out to Rod! He was super fast to reply and was very helpful. Great company to deal with and will most likely buy from there again. Recommending to my friends too
