Bird Eyewear Rio in colour Reef Blue : Style Meets Sustainability in Every Frame
Fashion doesn’t need to cost the Earth—and the Bird Eyewear Rio is proof of that. Crafted by a family-run team in Devon, this frame redefines what modern eyewear can be: stylish, sustainable, and genuinely planet‑positive.
The Rio’s Plantix® frame is made from innovative plant-based bio-acetate, a renewable material that replaces traditional plastics. Its sprung hinges add just the right amount of flexibility, offering all-day comfort without compromising on structure or strength. With measurements of 52‑21‑145mm, the Rio fits beautifully while maintaining a timeless silhouette that flatters nearly every face shape. We have selected the Reef colour, but it is available in a range of other colours.
What truly sets Bird Eyewear apart is the bigger picture behind the frames. Each pair is fully repairable and recyclable, minimising waste and supporting a circular design philosophy.
The brand partners with global organisations like the WWF, RSPB, and SolarAid, ensuring that every purchase contributes to real-world positive impact—from wildlife protection to clean energy initiatives.

Choosing the Bird Eyewear Rio isn’t just about how you look—it’s about what you stand for. These glasses are for those who believe that style can lead to change, one frame at a time.
