The Foundation Eyewear team is excited to be heading to Paris this September for SILMO Paris 2026, taking place September 25 to 28 at the Paris Nord Villepinte Exhibition Centre. SILMO has been bringing the international optical and eyewear industry together since 1967. For our team, it is an incredible opportunity to meet manufacturers, discover new brands, explore new materials and designs, and connect with people from across the global optical industry. This year's show fe

What an incredible performance from Blaire Kniaziew Gervais at the inaugural IRONMAN 70.3 Northern California in Redding, California. Blaire took first place in the Women’s 50–54 age group with an outstanding time of 5:19:38, finishing nearly 40 minutes ahead of the second place finisher. For a first year event, this was an impressive course and a serious test of endurance, making Blaire’s performance even more impressive. The race took athletes through some of Northern Calif

When we talked about Meta’s recording glasses last year, one of our biggest concerns was privacy. At the time, we were already asking what would happen when you put a camera on someone’s face and make it look like a regular pair of glasses. A year later, those concerns haven’t gone away. If anything, they have only intensified as the technology becomes more advanced and more people become aware of what these glasses can do. One of the biggest issues is that, unlike a phone, a

There's no better way to test a pair of sport sunglasses than on a bright, sunny day, and the BRILLIANZE men's sport sunglasses were put through their paces in exactly those conditions. Whether you're running, cycling, golfing, hiking, or simply spending the day outdoors, your eyewear should enhance the experience. BRILLIANZE sport sunglasses are engineered to deliver exceptional optical clarity, lightweight comfort, and all-day durability so you can stay focused on your acti

At Foundation Eyewear, we're proud to support the U13 Leamington Whitecaps Girls Baseball Team by providing every player with a pair of BRILLIANZE Photochromic Sports Glasses.

That's why BRILLIANZE Photochromic Sports Glasses are designed to adapt automatically, darkening in bright sunlight a

An evening run in dusty conditions is exactly the type of environment BRILLIANZE sport sunglasses were designed for.

It's always rewarding to see our eyewear being used in real-world conditions by people who lead active lifestyles. Whether you're running on trails, cycling, golfing, hiking, or simply enjoying the outdoors, your eyewear needs to perform just as hard as you do. BRILLIAN

Early morning runs have a rhythm all their own. There’s something about stepping outside when it’s still dark, the air a little cooler, the world a little quieter. As you settle into your pace, the sky slowly begins to shift. What starts as deep darkness turns to soft blue, then streaks of orange and pink, and before you know it, you’re running into full daylight. It’s one of the most rewarding parts of getting out early but it also brings a unique challenge for your eyes. Li
