Acetate Sunglasses

At Groovy Sunnies, we believe you don’t have to choose between luxury and sustainability. Our Acetate Collection is handcrafted from bio-acetate made with renewable corn, making it fully biodegradable at the end of its life. Paired with real hardwood temple details, these sunglasses deliver a refined, high-end look that feels as good as it looks. Solid, thicker, and made from the best materials we’ve used so far, this is the collection for those who want to stay eco-conscious without giving up that premium, designer feel.

Handcrafted Acetate with Wood Details

Every frame is handmade from plant-based bio-acetate derived from corn, which is fully biodegradable — no microplastics, no hidden nasties. Each pair is accented with genuine hardwood temples, giving it a natural touch and a striking contrast.

UVA/UVB Polarised Lenses

Polarised 1.1 mm tri-acetate tinted lenses cut glare, reduce eye strain, and provide crisp, clear vision. They’re shatter-safe, scratch-resistant, tougher than glass, and block 100% of UVA/UVB rays — perfect for sunny days in the city or by the coast.

What’s in the Box

A cool foldable case — a hard case that you can carry around and fit in your pocket or purse without taking up space. Super-practical, durable, and made with care. Plus, a high-quality microfiber pouch and a soft microfiber cleaning cloth to keep your lenses looking fresh.
