Warby Parker Inc. is an American eyewear brand and retailer of prescription glasses, contact lenses, and sunglasses, based in New York City. Founded in 2010, it was initially an online-only retailer. It now receives (about two-thirds) of its revenue from its 276 physical retail stores, 271 of which are in the U.S. and 5 of which are in Canada. It also offers eye exams. The company has 2.28 million customers, with an average order value of $263. The company's goal is to operate 900 stores.
Warby Parker is headquartered in New York City. The name "Warby Parker" derives from two characters that appear in a journal written by Jack Kerouac.
Warby Parker designs its products in-house and sells them directly to consumers through its website and stores. The company orders its own materials and works directly with partners in Italy, Vietnam, Japan, and China to manufacture their frames, often in the same factories as competitors such as Luxottica.
