Our Story
Article One was founded on a renegade spirit: to reject the conventional divide between performance and style. As an independent eyewear company born in Flint, Michigan, we pioneered the Athletic Transfer category, eyewear that combines the high-function of sport with refined, elevated fashion. We pivot away from logo-driven designs toward true innovation, where functional details, lightweight materials, and thoughtful, eco-mindful construction take precedence. Our proprietary Grip-Fit Technology, featuring custom silicone nosepads and rubber temple inlays, delivers a confident, stay-put fit for every part of your day. Article One is crafted for those in motion, offering personal style that is versatile, authentic, and unapologetically original.
