The Company

Optical Shop International (OSI) was founded in 1971, and became one of the world’s leading luxury eyewear retailers, Optical Shop of Aspen (OSA). Through the sale of the OSA retail stores in 2006, OSI became an independent company, designing, manufacturing, and distributing the world’s leading luxury eyewear. Over the past four decades, OSI has licensed some of the most elite brands in the world, developing a strong optical business for each that truly represents their unique DNA and product philosophy.

OSI’s vision is to be the world’s premiere independently-owned designer and distributor of luxury eyewear.

OSI has pioneered the evolution of eyewear from functional product to a luxury fashion accessory. The key to OSI's ability to lead the luxury eyewear market has been its unique ability to take industry first design concepts to a flawless finished product with almost no limitation on the level of quality, technology, and innovation. Not only have we been first to market with many of the most exciting new materials and manufacturing techniques in the luxury eyewear market, but we are able to provide these products on a volume production level while maintaining the high standards of a luxury product.

From high profile celebrities and style setters, to the simply fashionable, OSI caters to the customer who has a passion for the very best, and offers its products in the most discriminating and exclusive channels in the industry. With products that combine unique world-first designs and technology with unparalleled craftsmanship, OSI is widely recognized as a driving force in the luxury eyewear market.

OSI's distribution network of luxury optical and fashion boutique dealers extends to over 60 countries—through its U.S. Headquarters in Los Angeles, and subsidiaries in Lugano, Switzerland; Tokyo, Japan; and Mexico City, Mexico.

OSI is a true "guardian" of the brands in which it is entrusted and ensures only the highest levels of product design and quality, marketing focused on the luxury consumer, and a strict "exclusive" distribution strategy.
