About STAINZ

Built for people like us.

STAINZ started because I wear prescription glasses — and I couldn't find fit-over sunglasses that actually looked good.

Everything I tried felt bulky, old-school, or overpriced. And prescription sunglasses? They can easily cost hundreds of dollars once you add polarised lenses, coatings, and frames.

I wanted a better option for people like me. Something practical, comfortable, modern-looking, and affordable enough for everyday life.

So I built STAINZ.

No swapping glasses. No squinting in the sun. No spending a fortune.

STAINZ fit-over polarised sunglasses are designed to fit over your prescription glasses — without the bulky look.

Built for driving, fishing, work, and everyday life.

Most fit-overs focus only on function. STAINZ focuses on function and style.

Don't wear prescription glasses? STAINZ works just as well as a standalone pair of premium polarised sunglasses — no prescription needed. One frame, everyone covered.

Designed in Aotearoa. Built properly.
