Newsletter – October, 2011 – Eyebobs Eyewear

Great products are often created out of great need. Eyebobs Founder and President Julie Allinson found herself with a retail dilemma as she went in search of reading glasses and was disappointed by what was available.

Spotting a gap in the market for statement-making designs with affordable price tags, Julie went on to
create Eyebobs in 2001.

Combining quirky frames with eye-catching colors and humorous product names (see Nice Pair,
Peckerhead and Ms Laid), Julie and her team have succeeded in their mission to offer customers daring
designs that don’t cost the earth.
