    We've sold quite a few, and they hold up pretty well. We've chosen not to continue with them for no other reason than to switch it up a bit. I have many many come back for lenses only and I don't recall any obviously defective ones. They have some really unique styles. Hope that helps!

    They are selling well for us also. Carried them for over a year now. Nice "big" teen/adult zyl look for petite faces. No issues on quality.

    I used to sell them a few years ago and liked them. They were a great option for VSP patients who didn't want to pay much outside of their benefit.

    I think they are made in the US. I also believe the company was started by two opticians.
