NEW YORK, Nov. 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Pair Eyewear, the first direct-to-consumer and now leading customizable eyewear brand in the world, today announced the launch of the Van Gogh collection. The capsule collection, created in collaboration with The Van Gogh Museum and brokered by the museum's licensing agency, IMG, brings to life seven new top frames and accessories. Each piece is inspired by some of the artist's most iconic works, including The Yellow House (1888), Wheatfield (1888), and View of a Butcher's Shop (1888). This collection also includes a new top frame case and cleaning cloth set – marking the first time Pair Eyewear is unveiling co-branded eyewear accessories.

"We love partnering with creative forces that allow us to push the boundaries of eyewear design. Working with the Van Gogh Museum has been a thrilling opportunity to celebrate one of history's most beloved artists through our frames," said Sophia Edelstein, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Pair Eyewear. "This collection speaks directly to the core of our values at Pair as we seek to breathe joy and creativity into eyewear," added Nathan Kondamuri, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Pair Eyewear.

Pair Eyewear was co-founded in 2019 by Nathan Kondamuri and Sophia Edelstein who met as undergraduate students at Stanford University. Through an expanding selection of patented styles including limited edition drops and licensed designs, Pair Eyewear is creating a new way for adults and kids to experience and buy glasses. The brand has developed a family of patents around customizable technology to push innovation in an outdated industry. Additional patents are expected in 2025.
