My involvement with Upton USA watches (website is in development) and collaboration with Product M has made me fascinated with locally sourced, domestically manufactured products. I strongly believe that companies breaking the mold of low cost, high volume overseas manufacturing are going to be become more and more ubiquitous.

One such company that is participating in this revolution is called Capital. Capital produces hand made wood sunglasses all in the USA. The woods they use are all sourced from the US and maintain their original color finish. The styles are vintage inspired with a contemporary upgrade and each pair of sunglasses is slightly unique because of the nature of the woods they use. Below is a small sampling of their designs. Take a look at their website for more information.
