Tracking Your Order

  • You can track your live order status via our tracking portal here.
  • We typically will only provide a shipping tracking number when your eyewear has entered your destination country. Don’t worry, your order hasn’t been forgotten!
  • We handcraft all of our eyewear to order. Orders can take up to 3-4 weeks to be crafted with complex prescriptions taking 1-2 weeks longer. We may occasionally reach out to you regarding additional information to ensure we get complex prescriptions correct which may delay your order past these estimated timelines.

Please reach out to our Customer Happiness Team if you have any additional questions.

Shipping Times

Order processing takes 2-3 weeks as we custom manufacture your new specs. Progressive or more complex prescriptions may take up to 4 weeks to process. Please note these timings are estimated only and during peak demand times our workshop may experience delays.

International Orders to the United States will always be sent Delivery Duties Paid (DDP). That means no additional customs fees will be owed by you.

For any other countries, you are responsible for any applicable customs & duties fees which may be applied by your local customs. We will ship these items Delivery Duties Unpaid (DDU) which means you may be subject to additional customs fees and paperwork. You will be liable for any customs issues incurred, and we are not liable for any returns or additional charges due to you not paying the required local customs fees.

We will not offer any refund if you refuse to pay local country customs fees. These fees are enforced by your shipping country and are contracted between yourself and your customs only.
