Alan J

Alan J eyewear started in 1977 as an Illinois-based company by Alan J, and Cynthia Shapiro as a local distributor.

It has now grown into an internationally recognized eyewear company with sales in more than 20 countries, while every single frame is still manufactured proudly in the USA. Alan J. Shapiro started it all in his own garage – he didn’t have any resources back then but what he had was plenty of grit, contagious energy, and a will to do his thing. Fast-forward 40 years, this exclusive collection of top-tier frames pay tribute to the man who inspired it all. Each pair of glasses you find here is handcrafted by a team of skilled artisans who know their talents inside out. You will find frames in shades like teal, midnight, charcoal, iron, canary yellow, and more. Quality you can trust!
