Ebony Wood Sunglasses

I had these sunglasses on my list for years without pulling the trigger on them. When I needed to order refills for my Zebra pen at work, I had to reach the $35 threshold to qualify for free shipping, but since I hardly buy anything here anymore, I didn't know what to buy. Intro the Woodies! I've never had Wayfarer style sunglasses before, and since the price was extremely nice, I ordered immediately. Now that I have them in my hands I'm just chuffed with this purchase. These shades look good on pretty much everyone, and I'm no exception. The lenses are nice and dark and these will be a very nice companion for me on my bike journeys. But what has me here today writing this review are the little knick knacks included in the package. You get a cleaning cloth, a bag, a reasonably stiff case to store them in, a guitar pick, and even a novelty Monopoly card insisting I head to the beach at my earliest convenience. I plan on doing just that as soon as possible! I'm not sure how long the shiny plastic coating will last up against my quite corrosive skin, but if I get a year out of these, it was money well spent. These shades are great, and I can't wait to wear them out in some proper sunlight. Cheers to those at Woodies, and I'm sure even Pamela will gladly help me out if I ever need it. Thanks guys!

I love these sunglasses. I've been wanting something like Raybans or Oakley Holbrooks but just couldn't bring myself to pay over $100 for another pair of sunglasses. I knew there had to be another solution to get polarized lenses in a frame that had similar styling. I stumbled upon these while searching the web. I read up on their history and focus and really liked what they're about, plus they're somewhat local to me and I like supporting the small local businesses. So I purchased them right before taking a vacation. I figured if I ruined or lost a pair, hey they're only $25 and I'll pick up another pair and still pay half of what my last Oakleys cost me. When I got these, first I was impressed in the stuff you get with them. Carrying case, cleaning cloth, and some swag. Plus I thought it was hilarious when I saw the card about his mom as the customer service rep. While I was on vacation I noticed and email from their account (thinking it was one of the automated ones you get after purchasing) I almost disregarded it, but decided to respond anyway. Not even 10 minutes after my response, they responded with another email in regards to the one I sent. I was completely surprised in the quickness of the response and the fact someone was actually on the other end, reading and replying to these. So using the sunglasses on vacation in the Dominican Republic (took the beach motto to heart), I instantly fell in love with these. When I got home, I noticed some streaking in the lenses. I cleaned the lenses the day before we left but thought nothing of it. I'm pretty sure I cleaned them improperly and caused the streaking. Either way, I reached out to their customer service email explaining what was going on, mentioning I probably cleaned them improperly as the streaking wasn't ON the lenses but IN them, like the polarization was streaking, which happens if you use a detergent cleaner instead of just water. They responded very quickly asking for pictures of the issue, to which I provided. They again, immediately responded asking for my address and information along with proof of purchase. They sent me another pair within a few days, no charge!! I asked where to send the pair that had issues, and they told me not to worry about it. I couldn't believe the level of customer service they provided me, or how quickly they responded. They could've easily used my own statement to void my warranty (which most big companies would do) but they didn't. They took care of the customer and in doing so they gained a customer for life. I'll keep buying these sunglasses as long as I can see. Don't hesitate at all to purchase Woodies.

I snagged a pair of these sunglasses on a daily deal. I didn't really need another pair of sunglasses (I must have 15 pairs or so), but I like the wayfarer style and the fact that the bows are made of wood. Boy am I glad I bought them. They are very lightweight, oversized without being ridiculously big, definitely block the sun and look amazing on. I got the ebony color, and the bows are definitely black with a little of the wood grain showing through. They are etched with the "Woodies" name (subtly) on the outside of the bows, and the inside reads "~See you at the beach~", which I thought was an adorable detail. I like my lenses very dark, and these decidedly are. You can't see my eyes behind the lenses at all. They are perfect for bright, sunny days. The bows have good tension on them, and when you fold them up they kind of snap into place. A lot of sunglasses end up very flimsy at the hinges, and I'm guessing that won't be the case with Woodies. You get a really nice case with the glasses, plus some other accessories - a cloth drawstring bag for the sunglasses, a Woodies sticker, a microfiber cleaning cloth, a cute guitar pick, a Monopoly-style card ordering you to go directly to the beach and a card with service contact info. I could not be more please with my purchase, and I recommend the sunglasses and the company whole-heartedly!

Just as good if not better than my RayBans I lost. I didn’t want to spend the money but wanted something similar if not better, if possible. These glasses look great, they protect my eyes and feel great. But, I dropped mine and the lens fell out and luckily I was able to pop them back into place. I’ve read another review warning us on dropping them. Great glasses for the value but not as indestructible as RayBan.

I just got these today, i havent worn them outside yet but had to come here and review them anyway...they are awesome! The packaging alone is amazing and all the little ‘extras’ are adorable. Good on this company for putting a personalized spin on their product! I’m going to buy more pairs of these. These feel really well made and solid and come with a great case! . Love all the little retro inserts.

I've bought 2 pairs of these already. I broke the first pair and had to replace them but then had a fluke accident and broke the second pair within 2 days of getting them. The company was so caring and offered to replace them. The glasses themselves are incredible! They fit snuggly and don't budge from my face (I often have a problem with glasses sliding down my nose) and the lens are perfect! The polarization gets rid of any glare and lets me go out in the blaring sun without any squinting or decreased vision. I am sticking to these glasses!

Product arrived quick, but damaged. Tried them on and they did feel comfortable, but they need to be replaced. Have contacted the seller to rectify, just waiting to hear back. Value for money would be better if it wasn't damaged on arrival, otherwise it would be worth it.

Love these sunglasses. Never sure when ordering on line how they will fit and look. These were perfect, fit snuggly on the head so don't have to push them up , cut the glare when driving, and look good on. What more could you ask of sunglasses. So happy I have them.

I bought these for my boyfriend, they seem a little small but sturdy and the lenses work well. Over all they are good quality for the price.
