Our slogan, " What  wood you're made of ?"  more than a slogan is an invitation to reflection . This question we invite you to resolve besides the obvious, which would you ask that wood you would like to be your sunglasses wood or your wooden clock, also you are raising a veiled way other questions: Are You a special person ?, are you aware and committed to the environment? Do you feel good wearing natural products?

But what makes a fashion product to be considered sustainable?

Root Sunglasses & Watches manufactures its products in more or less natural materials, such as different types of wood used as raw material to manufacture our sunglasses and watches.

We select the wood species suitable for our products tienendo into account two main parameters:

1. Species characteristics , such as color, hardness, grain that make suitable for the product to have quality and termination according to quality standards that we impose as brand.
2. The impact of the use of raw material : selecting fast - growing species such as bamboo and / or  NO are protected by the   Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora ( CITES ).
