SPY Optic, Inc. (SPY) is based
in north county San Diego, just minutes from perfect surf, legendary
skate parks, and a short drive to the mountains. Taking advantage of
our location, SPY employees regularly surf, skate, wakeboard,
motocross, mountain bike, and snowboard. We are the ultimate
free-spirited company, mixing assorted eclectic organic and
technological elements of design with action sports and pop culture.
Unlike
many other sunglass brands who shoot out their frames hundreds at a
time on conveyor belts in China, SPY's styles are designed in
California, genuinely hand-crafted in Italy, and undergo an elaborate
manufacturing and quality control process. Every color fade on a
sunglass or goggle is hand-painted by an Italian artisan. In addition,
every Spy logo on an optical product is hand-painted or hand set as
well.
All SPY sunglass lenses, including the Clear Fade, protect
your eyes 100% from UVA, UVB, and UVC rays. SPY's optically corrected
ARC technology lenses are also hand-finished in Italy.
