Drypond Eyewear

Drypond is a Vancouver eyewear label founded in 2022 by Aidan Cheung, who draws on his family's manufacturing background — frames are produced at a factory his father, a longtime eyewear artisan, established. The line centers on vintage-referencing sunglasses in 1950s–70s silhouettes, handcrafted from Italian acetate and titanium with polarized, UV-blocking lenses. Styles include the Anton, Caius, Alves and Koya. Prices sit well below luxury eyewear, and the brand has collaborated with fellow Vancouver label ADAPTURE. It sells direct online and through stockists including Peggs & Son.
