Sayer is quite the model on his mom Kristin Loffer Theiss’ website and etsy pages. You can check out both Chris and Sayer at klt:works and shop for some awesome original art prints and apparel she sells! And we can’t wait to see Kristin in her new glasses as well… stay tuned!

Have a HAPPY 4TH 2012!

We, at EYES ON FREMONT, wish you all a safe and HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!
We will be closed for Independence Day to celebrate the occasion with friends & family but no worries– We will be open regular business hours for the rest of the week (10-6pm weekdays, 10-5pm on Saturday).  So get your BBQ on then come see us for some optical retail therapy!

A-FRAMES Story…

Elizabeth (aka Gus) in her new A-Frames style ‘Mali’, helped provide a year’s worth of Vitamin A supplementation for an indvidual in need.
One of our newest collections at EOF is an emerging frame line out of Chicago called A-Frames.  We are excited to carry them not only for their awesome retro aesthetic, but for the philosophy behind the company. Founder Wes Stoody created the line with the intention of partnering up with The Helen Keller Foundation, who benefits from 5% of A FRAMES’ total revenue. The long established non-profit organization helps to prevent & reduce low vision, Blindness, and malnutrition in communities where this problem is prevalent. Visit AFRAMES EYEWEAR to get more details on their philanthropic direction. 
Looking good AND seeing well feels that much better if someone else benefits from it, wouldn’t you agree?

Solstice Saturday: Enjoy a beanbag toss on us!

Remember, this Saturday is the Fremont Solstice Parade & Fair so come out & enjoy the fun! We will be open regular hours (10-5pm) and, rain or shine, always provide free entertainment via the EOF sidewalk bean toss– a neighborhood favorite!  
A few tips for the day: make sure to get in early for the best street parking as it fills up fast. Oh, and watch out for naked cyclists!

Koolest New kid on the Block- Eryka!

We have a fresh new face in the shop these days… Eryka Schiller joined the hip & funky EOF staff this spring and has a lot of optical dispensing experience to meet your eyeglass needs. If you don’t catch her here at the shop, it may be because she splits her time between EOF and on the road as a representative of the cool retro eyewear collection, Victory (which you can also find here at Eyes on Fremont)!

Other than slinging eyewear for a living, our Detroit native dedicates her passions to creative projects such as sewing & art and has been known to get her groove on to some house music as well. We love having Eryka here & are positive you will too!
