Made in Sydney
Rest assured no person, nor the planet, is exploited in the making of our glasses. We invented the process and control all manufacturing on the ground.

100% recycled frame
The entire frame, including the hinges, is made from the plastic of 1 x 600ml discarded single-use plastic bottle. This means 70-75% less CO2 is used in our manufacturing & we have zero material waste.

Premium Lenses
Lenses by Carl Zeiss Vision providing premium optical clarity & protection.

Thoughtful pricing. All the good.

We're glad you clicked this link. As soon as you buy a pair of our sunnies, good things happen thanks to you.

1. Our 100% recycled bottle plastic is processed and turned into your frames in Sydney, so everyone gets a fair wage.

2. Carl Zeiss Vision Australia cuts & fits your lenses in Adelaide.

3. Our dispatch centre is run by people with disability and their carers. They box up your order using 100% recycled packaging. We use Australia Post.

4. Every pair funds and stops 1/2 kg of plastic trash (equ. to 25 x plastic bottles) from reaching a waterway. Audited by CleanHub.

5. Each sale helps fund our work in education. Our clever design and thinking is now included in the Victorian Education Curriculum. We've also taught at UTS, UNSW, RMIT & the SHAPE HSC Seminars at the Powerhouse Museum. We believe in fostering the next generation of thinkers.

Sustainability - tell me more!

The word 'sustainable' is overused and can be confusing. So to be clear, this is our version of sustainable.

100% recycled frames
Our frames are made from the plastic of one discarded post -consumer PET bottle. Nothing else is added - no metal, no screws - making them recyclable too.

Ethical manufacturing
We make our frames in Sydney so we can control the manufacturing process to ensure no one nor the planet is harmed. And no cheap labour!

End of life
We take back broken parts to be recycled. Please email us and we’ll give you the free Reply Paid address to send them to.

Less CO2
Because we use only 100% recycled plastic in our frames, we use 70-75% less CO2 in our manufacturing than almost all other brands who use virgin materials (brand new plastic/ bioacetate).

Less waste
Our manufacturing process is zero waste. Every piece of our off-cut plastic finds a new home.

Less energy
Because we've reengineered the frame, we use less energy in our production. We make a frame in 100 seconds instead of the typical 100 hours.

Sunnies made by the sun
Our manufacturing partner has installed some serious solar panels on the factory roof. We only run our frame making machines in the day to take advantage of this renewable power. Good job the sun always shines in Sydney!

Lenses
Our lenses are manufactured by Carl Zeiss Vision in Hong Kong. We cut and fit our lenses at Zeiss in Adelaide.

Box, case & cloth
All are made from 100% recycled materials in our certified factories in China (via our local agent in Sydney).

Plastic removal
Through Plastic Bank, we prevent plastic waste from reaching the ocean. The process 100% traceable and certified. Each pair sold removes 0.5kg (equiv. to 25 plastic bottles) from rivers and waterways.

Delivery
We use compostable mailing satchels that you can bury in your garden and we use Australia Post's carbon neutral postal service.

Quality Material 100% recycled

I'm absolutely thrilled with my GoodCitizens sunglasses! The style is sleek and modern, and the comfort is unbeatable. I love that they're eco-friendly and made from recycled materials. The quality is top-notch, and the attention to detail is impressive. I've received countless compliments on my new shades, and I couldn't be happier. If you're looking for stylish, comfortable, and sustainable sunglasses, look no further than GoodCitizens!"

Best purchase

Could not recommend this company highly enough - fast service, great communication, heart warming back story, and most of all, an incredible product - sustainable, recycled, circular, repairable, local - it's got it all. The glasses are light weight, stylish, and they feel really sturdy too. Get around it!

Lightweight and super comfortable

Not only a quick turnaround but very reasonably priced. I’m much happier giving my money to a small business that’s local than a multinational corporation.

LOVE these frames

I am so in LOVE with my sunglasses I just had to get a pair for my prescription. Love love love - light weight, comfortable, the script is perfect, so easy to order online, great company and vision. The best.

Good product, good service, good vibes!

Everything about the experience with Good Citizens tells you they are good to the core. They really are good eggs, selling a better than good product and they back it with the best customer service.

I don’t give 5 stars very often but they deserve it.

Best service EVER

I dropped and stood on my glasses, damaging one the arms. I dropped them back into the store I brought them from in Avalon hoping for a miracle but expecting nothing 😂. Within 24hrs they called saying the owner of the company, personally, had fixed my glasses free of charge. Honestly, you don't get this service anywhere. So good! Super appreciative!!! Amazing glasses.

Great fit. Great lense.

I’ve bought Oakleys for years - I think these lenses are better. I love the personalisation. And love the family ethos.

♺ The most awarded sustainable eyewear

2500+ failed attempts. A story like no other

Two kids, heartbroken by the plastic crisis, had a simple idea to help. A story of hope and action. From tough beginnings to highs like Forbes USA, the UN, and a Selfridges window beside Prada making headlines worldwide. Today, the kids still control 50% of the business.

Untrash the planet® together.

Our Story

FAQ... go on... it's good to ask.

Will they fit me?

We've stared at and studied more faces than a FBI profiler, so we reckon we know what suits most faces.

8-step inspection
We make our frames in Sydney and then put each pair through an 8 step inspection process.

Clever repairs
Our modular system of five parts means you can repair your frames forever in seconds without the use of any tools. Genius!

Are the lenses any good?

Did you know your eyes are 10x more sensitive to UV than your skin?

Cheap sunnies = cheap lenses = damaged eyeballs.

Not ours! You'd have to spend north of $350 to get the same quality lenses. We only use the very best lens manufacturer.

Our German lens partner, Carl Zeiss Vision, is the 'Top Gun' of lens making. They make all our reader and sun lenses.

Engineered optical perfection & peace of mind your eyes are fully protected.

All lenses are UV400 and offer 100% protection.
