Inspired Inclusive and diverse? This is news to me, last I checked @MarchonEyewear did not carry any black, brown or asian owned brands. So what exactly does mean for billion dollar corporation say they "inspired by inclusivity in 2023? Il wait.

Look how cool those snow goggles were 😍.
Hits home especially for us because we had to do research on the history of the eyewear industry (and it’s biases) to be able to create better fitting frames.
Centuries ago, approximately 800 years prior, the indigenous Inuit and Yupik communities residing in Alaska and northern regions of Canada ingeniously crafted small apertures on ivory and antler materials to fashion snow goggles. This innovative creation served the purpose of reducing eye fatigue and protecting against the harmful effects of snow blindness caused by ultraviolet (UV) radiation emanating from direct sunlight as well as its reflection.
