Why Rheos

Born on the water in Charleston

Rheos started with a husband-and-wife team in Charleston who lost one too many pairs overboard. The first two floating styles sold out in 2016, and the line has been built around the same idea since: eyewear you stop worrying about. The whole company still operates out of Charleston: every frame is designed here, every wholesale order ships from here, and every support email is answered here. Water reflects up to 100% of UV rays, yet half of Americans will not wear sunglasses near it for fear of losing them. A frame that floats removes the reason.

Every purchase supports Lowcountry Land Trust conservation easements in coastal South Carolina, alongside our partners at Charleston Waterkeeper and SCDNR.
