Maverick Wood Veneer Sunglasses in Rose Gold

Maverick Wood Veneer Sunglasses in Rose Gold
Each frame is hand-crafted across more than 65 individual steps using sustainably sourced hardwood veneer layered with aluminium — which means no two frames are identical, and the one you receive is genuinely yours. Bear Essentials backs that with a lifetime warranty, because they believe in the frames enough to mean it.

The Maverick takes its name from the legendary big-wave surf break in California, where the waves carve unpredictable, individual formations — and that is exactly the logic behind the frame. Each piece of sustainably sourced hardwood veneer has its own grain pattern, so the rose gold Maverick you wear is the only one that looks precisely like that.
The construction is more involved than it looks. Over 65 hand-crafted steps go into each frame, with thin layers of aluminium bonded to the wood to give it the structural resilience to handle real life — beach days, mountain light, the kind of use that would finish a cheaper pair inside a season.
Lens quality matters here too. The Maverick comes fitted with polarised lenses rated to UV 400, which cuts glare on bright days rather than just darkening the view. That distinction — polarised versus simply tinted — is the one worth paying attention to when you are choosing sunglasses for outdoor use.
The frame suits a wide range of face shapes: heart, oval, square, rectangle, diamond, and round.

For every purchase, Bear Essentials plants one tree in areas of deforestation, using only native species — so the wood going into your frame has a direct counterpart going back into the ground.
The cork casing is worth a mention on its own: it is not an afterthought. It folds down small enough for a back pocket and keeps the frame protected when you are not wearing it, which given the craftsmanship involved, is the right way to treat them.

About Our Brand Bear Essentials
Travel accessories are often mass-produced from synthetic materials, leaving environmentally conscious explorers with limited options that align with their values. Bear Essentials addresses this by creating durable, considered products for those who wish their equipment to be as thoughtful as their journeys.
Every Bear Essentials item is handcrafted using natural materials, including wood from sustainable forestry and recycled pellets, ensuring each piece is unique. The brand prioritises natural alternatives over plastic, a practical manufacturing decision that speaks to their commitment to responsible production.
Originating from a family home workshop, Bear Essentials maintains handcrafting as central to its production, refusing to compromise craft for scale. For every purchase, a tree is planted, directly replenishing the natural resources used and closing the loop between consumption and environmental return.
