OUR STORY
KayTran Eyewear
was founded in 2012 by Canadian, Kathy Tran, with the goal of making stylish eyewear more inclusive.
It started with simple beliefs: One size has never fit all and every face is unique, deserving of a great frame. She had a goal to make eyewear more inclusive for individuals with low nose bridges across diverse backgrounds, including herself as an Asian female.
We were fed up with wearing generic-fitting, mainstream sunglasses made for more prominent nose bridges that:
Slipped down our lower nose bridges
Sat on our cheeks, leaving embarrassing indents.
Lifted off our faces when we smiled.

Fresh out of her MBA, she took it into her own hands. What began as an endless quest to find eyewear that solved these fit issues, soon turned into a 2-year journey of meticulous research and design to create a new, perfect low bridge fit frame in wearable, timeless, beautiful designs.
Today, we are an independent, Canadian company and are committed to:
Creating curated collections of wearable, timeless frames.
Hand finishing each frame with high grade and quality materials.
Bringing an inclusive fit for low nose bridges across all diverse backgrounds.
