Seconds & Samples - Each pair has a minor cosmetic flaw - a small mark, a light scratch, or a slight variation in the frame, or even better, just been used in a photoshoot once! The exact fault is noted next to the specific pair you choose. Same lenses, same UV protection, same bored·george quality, for a lot less. Because they’re one-offs, seconds & samples are final sale: no returns or exchanges.

A softer take on the everyday sunglass. The Piper Purple is the cat-eye in a translucent purple acetate - gentle, wearable, and quietly different. Oversized, polarised, and finished in a colour that adds something to your outfit without shouting about it. Proof that you don’t have to go bold to stand out.

Designed in New Zealand. Built to last. Worn by women who like their accessories considered, not loud.

Why you’ll love the Piper Purple:

• Oversized cat-eye silhouette, flattering on almost every face shape, with a timeless retro-modern edge
• Polarised UV400 lenses with 100% UVA/UVB protection to reduce glare and eye strain
• Category 3 UV protection, perfect for driving, beach days, and high-glare environments
• Premium translucent purple acetate frames, a plant-based material derived from tree pulp and cotton, with a soft, light-catching finish
• A subtle alternative to black that still goes with everything
• Complies with New Zealand and Australian sunglasses standards (AS/NZS 1067)
• Designed in New Zealand by a small, women-led team

An everyday alternative to black

Black sunglasses are easy, but they’re also everywhere. The Piper Purple gives you the same wear-with-anything ease, just with a bit more interest. The translucent purple acetate lets light through, so the colour shifts subtly depending on what you’re wearing and where you’re standing - never flat, never loud. The oversized cat-eye shape keeps it grown-up and flattering. Perfect for anyone who wants their daily sunglass to feel a little less default.

The Piper Purple is our regular-size cat-eye. If you love the cat-eye look but want a different colour, the Piper family also comes in Tort, Black, and Shimmer.
