I was on the net checking out what was happening for sunglasses and was struck by Filtrate Eyewear. I was impressed with their range so I decided to give them an email.

First contact was made with the president of the company, Wade Sutton. Being a fellow Aussie he was stoked to chat about skateboarding, back home and what Filtrate was doing in the market. So in Jan 2012 Wade sent me two glass styles: Banray’s (Art side) and Zeppelin.

It is now 5 months later and I have skated, mountain biked, and general street worn them hard and they are still solid.  I recommend Filtrate Eyewear as an affordable, functional and stylish choice for your next sunglasses purchase.
