MIAMI, Dec. 11,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Innovative Eyewear, Inc.
("Innovative Eyewear" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: LUCY; LUCYW), the
developer of smart eyewear, is pleased to announce through an
agreement with Authentic Brands Group (Authentic), the launch of
the Nautica Smart Eyewear collection.
"Smart eyewear was once firmly in the remit of early adopters
and tech enthusiasts alone. We are changing that forever by
producing smart eyewear that is not only a functional Bluetooth
accessory, but a fun and trendy fashion statement," said
Harrison Gross, CEO of Innovative
Eyewear. "Combining our technology with the popular and storied
Nautica brand is sure to delight consumers worldwide, and further
advance our mission to make the future of eyewear smart. We look
forward to launching the line via our optical store partners in
January, as well as on Nautica.com soon after."
Nautica smart eyewear will be made in eight initial sunglass
styles, with two of the styles also available with a blue
light-blocking lens for indoor use. All of the frames will be able
to accept prescription lenses. The collection also features
Nautica's first-ever "Global Fit" frame for consumers with a low
nose bridge, which paves the way for the products to be sold in
additional regions. The line also features hi-fi Bluetooth 5.2
audio, 12 hours of music per charge, 99% post-consumer recycled
packaging, patent-pending auto-adjusting hinges, and several
branded accessories including a power brick, cleaning cloth and a
slipcase with the iconic Nautica sail logo.
"When it comes to Nautica, we've always been dedicated to
providing consumers with style and fashion. Partnering with
Innovative Eyewear to launch Nautica Smart Eyewear allows us to
take that commitment to the next level. These smart glasses not
only reflect our brand ethos but also provide users with an
innovative and stylish way to engage with the world," said
Henry I. Stupp, President, Lifestyle
EMEA - INDIA at Authentic.
The Nautica smart eyewear line is expected to ship in
January 2024. To learn more about
