7PLIS is a new brand premium glasses and accessories, made in France and recycled from old used skateboard boards (wood).
Valorizing old skateboard boards in this way is a bit crazy but very ingenious idea of Florent Baraban, optician-mooner and creator of the brand.
Why 7PLIS?
The number of wood folds (Canadian maple) that is a skateboard board is 7.
We get all kinds of skateboarding boards (wooded) across France, amateur or more professional skateboarding boards, especially those of Adrien Bulard!
These skateboard boards are then delicately recycled to bring a soul supplement and value their stories.
Each skateboard board lends itself perfectly for the frame design, the skate board is kept in order to give the frame an efficient support and optimal comfort for the wearer.
On the other hand, the initial colour of each board is also preserved, consisting of 7 more or less coloured folds.
Then, the traces of wear and tear can also be valued in order to bring a particular singularity to each creation and thus make it clear that the piece of wood was skated for hours before correcting your view or protecting you from the sun.
Finally, the wood material being made up of several folds allows a very high strength and a real lightness, making it an ideal companion for making frames of glasses (corrective or protective).
So it's with the sharp expertise of the eye optician and the passion of ride that each pair of glasses is reflected and made.
Each of our creations receives special attention in order to bring optimal comfort to the one who will revive this old piece of trampled wood!
