If you own a pair of Genusee frames, you are a part of a finite community of 15,529 who believed in our vision for the future of sustainable eyewear. Thank you for joining us on the journey to be the change we want to see. 🫶

Hey Changemakers!

When we announced in August we were shutting down I did not expect us to still be selling glasses during Holiday 2022. But because we don’t do waste, we’ve remained open until every frame has a home. We are down to the final 400 frames and my hope is with your help we can find them all a home before the end of this year. 

It’s been a slow burn winding down versus the quick goodbye I had hoped for. Our last day operating in Flint and making glasses was September 30th. And since then I’ve been fulfilling our final orders from my mom’s basement and from home. It’s been an interesting and humbling time for me as an entrepreneur, but I’ve honestly never felt more gratitude for this journey and the community of customers we have.

You can now shop the remaining inventory up to 70% off. No discount code is needed.

Regular frames $31-35
Readers $56-60
Lemon frames $8
Lemon readers $33

If you purchase frames only you can have prescription or sun lenses installed with your local optometrist OR with our friends

You can also shop Genusee frames + prescription blue light lenses directly with our friends at

Friday, December 16th will be the last day to order to receive in time for Christmas.

We will continue shipping orders through Wednesday 12/21, but cannot guarantee you will receive your order in time for Christmas if you order after the 16th.

We cannot guarantee any delivery dates that are effected by carrier delays that are out of our control. Please shop sooner than later to give your order ample time to arrive to you.

Additionally we will be closed Thursday 12/22-12/26. Orders placed during that time will be shipped on Tuesday 12/27. Please plan accordingly.

We are a one woman operation right now so thank you in advance for all your generous support & patience during our last holiday season. 

Wishing you all happy holidays.

Joy & ease,
Ali Rose

Reflecting on our journey the last 4 years…

This was our first in-studio campaign shoot for Holiday 2018, after our Kickstarter. We collaborated with the amazing photographer (who also happens to be a friend I’ve known since high school in Michigan.) We were lucky enough to shoot at on a discounted weekend rate and again had friends generously model for us. + produced, styled & brought the creative vision to life.

These images still feel timeless and full of so much joy & optimism.
