Our aim is straightforward, offer stylish eye wear with amazing optics at a fair price. Our business model is just as simple as our goal, sell exclusively online to cut overhead and pass the savings on to you.
Vibrant & Diverse Styles
Our designers put together an eyewear line just as vibrant and diverse as the Northwest landscape its inspired by. Our promise is your new glasses will feel and see as great as they look.


Nifty Frames That’ll Last
NW:specs are designed to last and backed by our 1 year defect free warranty. We use only the finest cellulose acetate and stainless steel for our frames. Each frame goes through rigorous quality testing by our in-house optician. Trust us, after practicing for 35 years he knows the ins and outs of eyewear and what design pitfalls to avoid.
See The Difference
Select pairs of Rx NW:specs come with our advanced Hivex lenses. Hivex is superior to its more common counterparts Trivex and polycarbonate. With Hivex you get lighter lenses and sharper image quality. You’ll also get better contrast sensitivity and less glare at night.
Scratches and glares are a drag. We protect your über cool lenses with anti-reflective and scratch resistant coatings. If your lenses get scratched in the first year we'll replace them for free.
