About us
Warby Parker was founded with a mission: to inspire and impact the world with vision, purpose, and style. We’re constantly asking ourselves how we can do more and make a greater impact—and that starts by reimagining everything that a company and industry can be. We want to demonstrate that a business can scale, be profitable, and do good in the world—without charging a premium for it. And we’ve learned that it takes creativity, empathy, and innovation to achieve that goal. Glasses, sunglasses, contacts, and eye exams—we’ve got your eyes covered. Shop prescription eyewear starting at $95 online or find a store near you at warbyparker.com Ultimately, we believe in vision for all, which is why for every pair of glasses or sunglasses we sell, a pair of glasses is distributed to someone in need through our Buy a Pair, Give a Pair program. As of 2020, over eight million pairs have been distributed—and we’re only just getting started. Learn more at warbyparker.com/buy-a-pair-give-a-pair.

In 2010, Warby Parker launched with a goal to make shopping for glasses easy, affordable, and fun. This week, we’re celebrating 16 years of doing all of that, and so much more. Today, we have over 300 retail stores across the U.S. and Canada, 4,000 team members, and have distributed over 20 million pairs of glasses through our Buy a Pair, Give a Pair program. We’ve had a blast celebrating—Sweet 16 style—across our offices, retail stores, and labs. Thank you to #TeamWarby for making every milestone possible.

He is a seasoned leader with a proven track record of helping iconic consumer brands navigate complex growth and scale. Adrian joins us at an exciting moment as we continue to expand and innovate our product offering and customer experience, and as we prepare to introduce our first AI glasses.

It’s January, which means it’s time to celebrate Optician Appreciation Month! At Warby Parker, our 1,200+ certified, licensed, and apprentice opticians are the ultimate multi-taskers. On any given day, you can find them translating complex prescriptions into perfectly balanced lenses, helping customers find their perfect frame style and fit, and using their expertise to ensure the quality of every Warby Parker frame. It’s a lot of work, a lot of adjustments, and a lot of pupillary distance measurements—but they make it look easy. Thank you to each and every optician on #TeamWarby!

We’re thrilled to bring a little extra art to Baltimore. 🦀 If you’re near our Village at Cross Keys store, stop by to see our new Mini Print Vending Machine, featuring exclusive work by Anastasia Inciardi (including a very Maryland-appropriate blue crab). Best of all? Proceeds from these prints go directly to the Pupils Project, our program that provides free eye exams and glasses to students across the country.

Earlier this week, we hosted another Speaker Series at our New York City headquarters. Our co-founder and co-CEO Neil Blumenthal sat down with brand visionary and entrepreneur Rachel Shechtman, who founded the experience-driven retail concept STORY in 2011 to reinvent the traditional brick and mortar business model. Rachel and Neil’s discussion was a deep dive on innovation within retail and the power of creating memorable customer experiences. Rachel also talked about her background as a fourth-generation retailer, the types of shopping experiences that inspire her, and the power of hiring for mindset over skillset.
