INSPIRATION
After several years working as the export director of a leading company in the eyewear industry, it is end 2005 that I decided to create my own eyewear collection. It will be named Urband, a mix of Urban & Band.
So Urband was born in Paris in 2006 with the wish to bring into an eyewear collection the wealth of hundreds of encounters and shared experiences through out the world. A fusion of people, lifestyles & colors is still today what really defines Urband.
I love to mention Paris, where I live, New York, where I use to live, Tokyo & Hong Kong, where I travel several times a year, as many sources of inspirations. The energy and melting pot from those cities are in the heart of Urband.
We create collections which are Urban in their styles, light & comfortable on your face and always at the forefront of technology for the best quality.
We do our best to bring you a new look on what glasses should be.
