OGI Eyewear
In what might be considered, the “Best of Both Worlds”, all OGI styles are designed in the U.S. and then handmade in Japan.
Each frame design originates in the United States, primarily in Minnesota, the heart of the upper Midwest.
Due to this combination of American design and Japanese production, OGI frames have the quality of fitting diverse faces.
OGI Eyewear, a once humble small-town shop, has evolved into a leading player in the independent optical industry. Their journey is characterized by a constant redefinition of independence and fun within the sector. Despite their growth, their commitment to supporting optical partners serving their respective communities remains steadfast and is considered their top priority.
Designed by talented and experienced American Designer David Duralde, OGI sets itself apart by pushing the fashion envelope with eye-catching yet wearable frames each season.
OGI’s frame names wear their Minnesota pride loud, with MN lingo terms for each style!
Their namesake collections OGI and OGI Kids, deliver style with bold colors, unique shapes, and meticulous details.
Virtual Just got Real
In pursuit of their commitment to independent optical, OGI has spent years developing a Game Changer in terms of the fitting process. This Virtual Try-On App transports to a virtual fitting room, with ultra-realistic renderings of every style and color in their collections.
Using any compatible smartphone or tablet, one can view themselves in their eyewear, capturing the ambient light anywhere and everywhere. This tool makes patient approvals a snap, streamlines ordering, and makes frame boards bottomless.Â
By staying true to their Minnesota values and their mission to support the independent industry, OGI now also offers American eyewear collections like performance eyewear label Article One, which was founded by collegiate runner Wes Stoody and the premium reading eyewear label SCOJO New York, which is inspired by the contemporary style of New York City
