Inspiring Confident Eyewear

The Altruist frames are a confident set of sunglass frames with a subtle silhouette. I really feel these are the best sunglass frames I’ve had in many years and I’ve tried on hundreds and owned several dozens across multiple brands. They are sturdy, sophisticated, understated, unique, visionary, lightweight and comfortable for all day, any which way, wear. Love.
