The Legends Never Die: Our Mission to Revive Iconic Eyewear

In the late 90s and early 2000s, eyewear design reached a peak of innovation. The X-Metal series weren't just accessories; they were sculptural, architectural masterpieces made of high-grade metal. They became icons.

And then, they were gone. Discontinued.

Like you, we are enthusiasts. We remember the unique feel, the weight, and the unmistakable style of those classics. We saw the frustration of fans facing skyrocketing prices on the secondary market. We knew there had to be a better way.

Why We Started HodaoGlass

HodaoGlass was born out of a passion for those iconic designs and a commitment to accessibility. Our mission is simple: To meticulously revive the legends, honoring the original aesthetic while ensuring quality and durability. We are keeping their spirit alive for the fans who appreciate them most.

The Quality Question: How We Do It

We know what you might be thinking: "How can a $59.95 frame (especially with Buy One Get One Free) possibly be high quality?" It’s a fair question. Here is how we deliver exceptional value:

1. Material Focus: It Must Be Metal

We don't compromise on the core experience. Our frames are crafted from premium, high-strength metal alloys. They deliver the satisfying weight, the cool touch, and the durability you expect. We pay close attention to the details—the hinges, the flex couplers, the finish.

2. Advanced Optics

The view matters just as much as the frame. All HodaoGlass sunglasses feature high-grade, impact-resistant HD Polarized lenses with 100% UVA/UVB (UV400) protection, ensuring clarity and safety.

3. Direct-to-You Model

By cutting out traditional retail markups and expensive middlemen, we focus our investment purely on product quality and pass the savings directly to you.
