Drypond, a contemporary eyewear company based in Vancouver, British Columbia, embraces a second-generation approach to modern eyewear. Founded by Aidan Cheung in 2021, with roots connecting Shenzhen and Hong Kong, Drypond draws inspiration from vintage frames across Europe and America. Each meticulously crafted frame is produced from start to finish by a family-owned factory with nearly half a century of expertise in eyewear manufacturing. Using sleek Italian acetate, every style offers a thoughtful reinterpretation of retro frames favored by historically influential figures.
Drypond is a representation of family and legacy — an ongoing dialogue between generations. The brand believes in the importance of craftsmanship, artisanal products and voice of culture. When choosing priorities, Drypond is persistent in the mechanical world while adapting to innovation and design. With full focus on what is present and abundantly available, Drypond denies the need to predict future trends.
