About Neven / Our Story

One sunny day, our founder, Jonathan Strauss, lost an expensive pair of prescription sunglasses to the ocean while jet skiing. That moment of frustration sparked an idea: why should quality eyewear come with a price tag that makes losing or breaking them so painful?

Driven by a mission to redefine what eyewear could be, Jon started Neven Eyewear from his bedroom. With nothing but grit, passion, and a vision to deliver stylish, durable, and affordable sunglasses, he built Neven from the ground up. Today, we've shipped millions of sunglasses worldwide, helping customers everywhere see life more clearly without breaking the bank.

At Neven, our name and symbols carry deeper meanings. NEVEN is short for "Never Odd or Even," a palindrome that reads the same forwards and backwards. It's a reflection of equality, balance, and guaranteed quality. No matter which way you look at it, Neven Eyewear is committed to elevating the game when it comes to quality, price, and customer satisfaction.

You'll also notice our signature three tildes on every pair. These tildes represent air, land, and sea—a reminder that Neven Eyewear is designed to accompany you wherever life takes you. Whether you're soaring through the skies, exploring new terrain, or diving into the waves, Neven Eyewear is built to protect your eyes and enhance your image for all of life's extraordinary adventures.

We don't just sell sunglasses; we build trust. Every pair is crafted with precision—using premium polarized lenses, sturdy frames, and reliable hinges—and backed by our Everlasting Guarantee. Whether lost, broken, or stolen, we’ve got you covered.

Jon's inspiration stems from his upbringing, his parents' values, and the belief that everyone deserves more than just a great product- they deserve an excellent experience. With this guiding principle, Neven Eyewear continues to grow, serving as a testament to the power of determination, innovation, and community.

Join us on this journey. Neven isn't just eyewear- it's a commitment to making your life brighter and more adventurous.
