Our take
They say every great idea starts with a problem, and for Warby Parker this was simple - glasses were just too expensive. Inspired by the need to have great-looking frames that didn’t break the bank, the co-founders set out to disrupt the legacy-dominated eyewear market.
Going up against existing big brands was no easy feat. However, by circumventing traditional manufacturing methods, using in-house design, and engaging with customers directly, Warby Parker was able to provide high-quality and good-looking prescription glasses at a fraction of the cost.
The company's retail category disruption has led to it being one of the most successful direct-to-consumer brands of the early 21st century. It managed a successful IPO in 2021, has raised considerable funds and mad a number of high-profile collaborations. Its latest partnership is with Google, which sees the company plan to develop and release a range of AI glasses.
