SIZE GUIDE - 54-20-145
They've seen more sunrises than most. Stuffed in a centre console, chucked on the head for an arvo session at the pub, tossed on a towel at the back beach. Every scratch they didn't get is a story.

100% protection!
All of our lenses offer UV400 A/B protection. 'UV400' refers to UV rays at the top end of the UV spectrum, up to the 400-nanometre wavelength. Our lenses block 100% of these UV rays, which provides you with the most possible protection you can get.
All our sunglasses have Category 3 lenses which are best for daytime driving conditions — any higher is considered too dark to drive safely. They are also polarised which reduces the glare!
This is why we offer our Free Home Try-On service! If they don't suit you and you have used this feature you can simply return them for free :)
Our sunglasses are backed by a 12 Month Unbreakable Promise. In the rare case that you encounter any problems with your sunnies, please email hello@shadeeyewear.com.au so we can resolve it for you.
Please check our warranty page for more information.
We sure do! Currently we offer AfterPay so you can wear your new sunnies straight away and pay them off with four small repayments.
I started this brand while I was full time on the tools as a plumber, chasing a dream to build something of my own.Something that actually meant something. Shade was never meant to be “just another sunnies brand.” It’s my way of creating high-quality gear that lasts, pushes back against plastic waste, and supports healthier oceans, the place that’s shaped so much of my life.
My goal is simple: build a brand that does good, makes people feel good, and eventually gives me the chance to hang up the tools and go all-in on something I’m truly passionate about. Every pair we create, every detail we refine, every small step forward, it all comes from that mission.
And honestly, none of this happens without you.
Every order, every message, every bit of support… it means more than you know. You’re helping me grow a purpose-driven brand from the ground up, and you’re helping contribute to marine conservation through our partnership with Sea Shepherd Australia. It’s something I’m incredibly grateful for.
Thanks heaps for being here, for backing the little guy, and for believing in what we’re building.
