SooNice
SooNice develops sunglasses for children who love playing outdoors.
SooNice Sunnies is a young company that has set itself the task of developing functional and cool sunglasses especially for children and offering them to parents to protect their children. For the founders Chris and Doris, the idea for their start-up came about when they repeatedly noticed in their family circle how important sunglasses are for children and how unsatisfactory the range of practical and visually appealing sunglasses for children is. They quickly realized that most children's sunglasses on the market are simply small versions of adult sunglasses. There was an urgent need to change this.
The entrepreneurs first did some research. They contacted leading eye care specialists for children and also asked about what parents wanted from children's sunglasses. Their extensive research showed that there was a striking lack of suitable sunglasses that met the needs of children. Most parents know that sun protection is an important issue for children. However, it is not just about the skin. Sensitive children's eyes, which are still growing, must be protected from harmful UV radiation.
Children who like to run around and play outside need special protection. Their eyes must not be exposed to the sun without protection. This is not so easy, because their unbridled urge to move often causes them to forget warnings, and glasses that are not suitable for children are quickly lost or broken. Incidentally, eye protection is not only an important issue in spring, summer and fall, but also in winter, when snow reflects the bright sun even more.
The founders of SooNice and their team of experts developed special sunglasses for children that stay on their noses even in the heat of the moment and that children love to wear because they like them. The sunglasses in the best and most child-friendly design are sustainable because they are made from recycled nylon (ECONYL®). Not only the sustainability concept speaks for this material, but also its properties. Glasses made of recycled nylon are particularly light, supple and flexible. Other plastics are usually stiff and inflexible. Recycled nylon can be bent to a certain degree and does not break as easily. Due to their light weight, children do not find SooNice Sunnies sunglasses annoying and can easily keep them on for hours.
SooNice Sunnies glasses have another feature that appeals to children and their urge to move. They have a click-on hinge. Click-on hinges are practically unbreakable. The search for hinges with the desired properties initially proved difficult. The market did not offer what was hoped for. Together with their production partners in Italy, the entrepreneurs finally developed the click-on hinge. If children snap the temples of their SooNice glasses, it can be easily and quickly reinserted.
SooNice sunglasses are specially made for children. The stylish, sustainable, practical, robust, flexible and quite funny glasses are essential for children with a pronounced urge to move outdoors to protect the eyes. They are available in a wide range of colors that children love. They are also scratch-resistant and can withstand any adventure. They are suitable for playing on the beach as well as in the mountains or in the snow. However, should a lens ever become damaged and develop scratches, you can simply contact the SooNice company and get a free replacement. The lenses are just as easy to swap as the click-on hinges can be reinserted.
