60-Day Returns
Don't love them? Send them back for a full refund.
Every pair passes a real float test — in real Hawaiian water.
Bamboo is naturally buoyant, and our skateboard-wood frames are built the same layered way as a deck — light, strong, and made to ride on top of the water instead of under it.
Each frame is sealed with a natural wax coating so it can handle saltwater, sunscreen, and everyday wear without losing its finish.

"Great glasses for sailing! They cut the glare so well. Dropped them overboard multiple times and they were on the surface waiting for me."
"The fact that they float is a huge plus for a marine environment. Lightweight and comfortable, and they've held up well to salt and sun."
"I don't have to worry about losing them to the ocean because the wood frames actually float, which is perfect when you're on a boat all day."
Before you shop
Do floating sunglasses actually float?
Yes — every pair is float-tested in Hawaii before it ships. The bamboo and skateboard-wood frames are naturally buoyant, so if they come off in the water they rise to the surface instead of sinking.
Are they really polarized?
Yes. Every pair uses Lani TAC UV400 polarized lenses that cut glare off the water and block 100% of harmful UV rays.
What if they get wet or salty?
The wood is sealed with a natural wax coating, so it's built to swim, sail, and surf with you.
What's the return policy?
60 days, no hassle. If you don't love them, send them back for a full refund.
