Sustainable Sunglasses

Pala is founded on the ambition to produce high quality, long-lasting sustainable sunglasses to fund change in eye care in Africa. There are 1.2 billion people worldwide with poor vision simply because they are unable to receive basic surgery or access glasses, and Africa has 73% more visually impaired people than any other region in the world. A pair of glasses is recognised as the number one tool to fight poverty.

We use the finest, most eco-friendly materials available to us, expertly handcrafted in small batches.

Our suppliers meet the highest standards of manufacturing and compliance. All our direct suppliers sign a code of conduct. We use plant-based bio-acetate for all our frames as well as more eco-friendly lenses for our non-polarised frames.

See the world better.
