Here at Respectacle Company, we have always strived to do our bit for the environment. We are conscious of the impact waste can have on the environment and therefore, we are constantly looking for ways to reduce what goes into landfill. We also focus on recycling and repurposing items wherever possible.

The Big Green Week is back in Market Harborough. And it is bigger and better than ever. The event organisers have cleverly linked the start of the weeklong awareness with the 2023 Harborough Carnival festivities on Saturday, 10th June.
With it being February, it feels like the perfect opportunity to highlight one of our favourite brands here at Respectacle Company. Of course, we love all our collections – each brings a different perspective to eyewear. However, it’s a bit like having children. We love them all equally. But each brand has attributes which make them unique and individual.
FEB31st is an eyewear collection made from wood. So, why is it called FEB31st, given the date doesn’t exist? The manufacture of wooden spectacle frames was said to be impossible. The company’s founders were told it wouldn’t be possible. But the FEB31st team set about proving that incorrect. And today they produce exquisite handmade, bespoke eyewear in the colour combination of your choice. The name seemed to fit perfectly.
