State Optical is the result of years of planning and organizing, decades of dreaming, and generations of hard work. You can tour their factory just outside of Chicago to see where they actually make the frames.

We knew this collection was in the making but were blown away when we actually saw the frames and jumped on their waiting list immediately. We’ve stocked State Optical since late Spring 2016 and can special order from this collection if it’s not in our current inventory.

From State’s page:
“State Optical Co. is a first-of-its-kind brand of luxury American eyewear proudly being manufactured in Chicago, USA. As such we celebrate the quality, character, and individual style that make our handcrafted frames – like the people who wear them – so genuinely authentic, appealing, inspiring and original.”
