We’ve always had a soft spot for eyewear that goes beyond the ordinary and stands out from the crowd. And if it’s sustainable and customisable, we’re drawn to it even more. Italian eyewear brand FEB31st fits that description perfectly. Crafted with personality, eco-conscious materials, and timeless Italian craftsmanship, FEB31st redefines what it means to wear glasses, combining style, innovation, and sustainability in every frame.
Being a spectacle wearer can be tricky sometimes – especially during the summer months or when you go away on holiday. It can be difficult to prepare for every situation. Personally, I like to plan ahead, particularly when I’m travelling abroad, by carrying several different types of eyewear, just in case.
I simply can’t function without my glasses. If disaster struck and I broke my glasses or lost them, I would be in serious trouble. I wouldn’t be able to drive, read public transport information, or navigate unfamiliar places. Which is why I never go on holiday without a spare pair.
We all know regular eye care is important, but sometimes it takes a real-life example to drive the point home.

At the time of purchase, we took the time to ensure that the customer was happy with their new eyewear. Fast forward a couple of years, and the customer was due for an eye examination.
