The classic wayfarer shape is one of those silhouettes that never really goes away. Bear Essentials has taken it and done something worth noticing: the frame is bio-acetate, made from a combination of natural wood pulp and recycled ocean plastic, which gives the tortoiseshell pattern its depth and warmth. The walnut wood temples are the detail that sets it apart — each one carries its own natural grain, so no two pairs are identical.
The lenses are polarised with UV 400 protection, designed to cut glare on bright days without distorting colour. You can choose from multiple lens options to personalise the look.
Face shape suitability: Heart, Oval, Square, Rectangle, Diamond, Round
The frames arrive in a cork protective case that folds flat into a bag or back pocket — practical, and in keeping with the material story of the rest of the product.
Bear Essentials backs every wooden frame with a lifetime warranty. That is not a small thing. It means the brand is confident enough in the construction to stand behind it indefinitely, and their aftersales team will work with you if anything does go wrong.
For every purchase, Bear Essentials plants one tree in areas of deforestation, using only native species.

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.
