8 Premium Sunglasses Brands To Celebrate National Sunglasses Day

Eyewear can be a crucial part of your daily wardrobe. The accessory is more than an object of flare, or used to remain incognito. Rather, it is a protective item that decreases the effects of UV rays on our eyes. With frames great for those addicted to sunshine, each of these brands can let your peers know you care about your health and your look.

June 27 celebrates National Sunglasses Day, a day dedicated to promoting the importance of UV-protective eyewear while embracing stylish designs. Founded by The Vision Council, this annual event encourages stylish individuals, and eyewear enthusiasts, to share their favorite shades on social media [#SunglassesSelfie and #NationalSunglassesDay]. Historically, sunglasses have had an intricate relationship to colder climates as opposed to the sunnier side of the sidewalk.

Tracing back to Inuit tribes in the Arctic regions, where the glaring sun reflects off of water, and snow-covered lands are very intense and require mitigation with some form of eye covering. An eye covering was designed by the indigenous group, with slits for the pupils to peer through, controlling the amount of light affecting one’s vision. Far from acetate, these frames were usually made of wood, or even bone, inspiring modern sunglasses.

To help you celebrate sunglasses, on-trend and in style, we’ve highlighted some of the hottest sunglasses brands making waves in 2025, from luxury icons to cutting-edge collaborations, and newcomers.
