Measurements: Unknown Historical Context Founded in 1968 in San Francisco by Susie and Doug Tompkins, Esprit developed a youthful California-inspired identity built around relaxed fashion, colour, creativity, and an optimistic lifestyle. Esprit began producing eyewear in the 1980s, with early frames manufactured in Austria under license by Optyl. These Austrian-made frames often used acetate and Optyl construction, with playful colour combinations, bold proportions, and sporty or retro-influenced silhouettes reflecting the brand’s casual aesthetic. Ed & Sarna Vintage Eyewear From 1994, Charmant became Esprit’s European eyewear licensee, handling the design, manufacture, and distribution of its optical and sun collections. Vintage Austrian Esprit eyewear captures the brand’s playful, accessible approach to fashion while reflecting the distinctive materials and production techniques of late-20th-century Austrian eyewear.
