Hobie sunglasses were not an overnight success, as many established fashion brands tend to be. In fact, Hobie was not originally a sunglasses manufacturer, but instead made it big with surfboards. Founded by Hobart "Hobie" Alter in the summer of 1950, inspiration hit when the young man found a way to combine his two loves – woods crafting and water sports.

Hobie began his career building 9 foot surfboards for friends, and soon the demand for these exceptional boards grew. Within a few years, a surf shop selling Hobie boards opened on the coast of California. His well-received wood boards evolved into foam and fiberglass boards, completely changing the face of the surf supply industry.

Since these boards moved more quickly and easily in the ocean than other surfboards, Hobie began a surf team with some big names from the sport, and they continue to set records and impress aspiring surfers today.

Since surfboards were such a huge hit, Hobie focused his innovative mind onto sailboats and kayaks, and in 1966 the Hobie company began manufacturing apparel to go with all the weekend fun the business sold.

Hobie sunglasses are known for being perfect for those who play hard in the outdoors. If you prefer sailing and water skiing to beach bumming, then you will love Hobie's “high performance optics.”

Designed specfically to take a tumble with nature, these are some of the most durable sunglasses on the market today. Equipped with polarzing film and hydroreflective lens coating, Hobie sunglasses have been leading the way since their premier on the sports market.

These unique and durable frames come in a wide variety of styles and functions for you to choose from.

The Premier line is perfect for male outdoor athletes with their sporty look and sleek design. For example, the El Capitan features thick frames with Hobie's specialized HydroClean Plus Glass Lenses. Available with or without a prescription, Premier sunglasses come in a variety of colors and base curves.

The Profile line gives a more delicate look with the same promise of sustainability. With thinner frames and neutral colors such as copper, the Solana is a great example of what the Profile line has to offer. With Poycarbonate lenses and non-slip nose pads, these frames won't fly off, even when you are running. Even more importantly, they look good.

Statice falls between the Premier and Profile, giving a medium thickness and a look ideal for men. Thicker and sturdier than the Profile while still coming less strong than the Premier, the Statice line is perfect for those who enjoy the sun and relaxation more than splashing around in the surf.

Finally, the Motion line works for both men and women, offering a wide array of frames and lens tints. Custom fit to any shape and style of face, the Motion glasses are comfortable and adaptable for all lifestyles.

No matter what category of Hobie sunglasses you choose, you will be satisfied with your purchase. While a little more pricey than regular sunglasses, you will find that Hobie shades last much longer, the quality is higher, and the technology is well above other sunglasses brands.
