Shades & Co | Ombre & Co

At Shades & Co, our story begins with a vision—a vision not only to see the world more clearly but to experience it more fully. Founded by a passionate eyewear enthusiast, Opeyemi Fisayo, Shades & Co was born from a simple yet profound belief: eyewear is not just about vision correction; it’s an expression of individuality, a statement of style, and a commitment to sustainability. I grew up in a small town, where every sunrise and sunset painted the skies in a symphony of colour. These Ombre skies inspired a lifelong fascination with the interplay of light and colour, and a deep appreciation for the beauty that surrounds us. This inspiration led to the creation of Shades & Co, where we blend artistic design with cutting-edge technology to craft eyewear that is as beautiful as it is functional. Our Mission: At Shades & Co, our mission is to transform the eyewear experience. We aim to empower individuals to express their unique style and personality through our meticulously crafted eyewear. We believe that everyone deserves to see and be seen in the best possible light, and our commitment to quality, innovation, and sustainability drives everything we do. Our Values: Artistry and Innovation: We merge traditional craftsmanship with modern technology to create eyewear that is not only visually stunning but also tailored for optimal performance. Each pair of shades is a piece of art, designed to reflect the wearer’s individuality. Sustainability: We are dedicated to protecting the beauty of our planet. From using eco-friendly materials to adopting sustainable practices in our production process, we strive to minimize our environmental footprint. Our frames are crafted from recycled and renewable materials, and our packaging is designed to be both stylish and sustainable. Community and Giving Back: At the heart of Shades & Co is a commitment to our community. We believe in giving back, which is why we partner with various organizations to provide eyewear.
