Limited edition sunglasses, with frames made from fishing gear recovered from a Humpback Whale entanglement. Designed in a rectangular sunglasses frame that suits a wide range of face shapes.

Paired with polarised Grey mineral Glass+ lenses, renowned for their UVA/UVB 400 protection, as well as exceptional optical clarity and durability.

On 21st September 2023, a Raggy Charters vessel in Algoa Bay, South Africa, discovered a young humpback whale entangled in ropes and buoys that prevented it from diving and feeding.

The National Sea Rescue Institute launched a complex operation to free the exhausted whale, ultimately succeeding in saving its life. The whale has since been spotted alive and healthy.

The recovered ghost gear was sent to Waterhaul, where we transformed it into unique sunglasses that support marine conservation. ยฃ37.50 from each sale goes to the World Cetacean Alliance.

Made entirely from recycled fishing gear recovered from the whale entangled in ghost gear, in Algoa Bay, South Africa. Each frame is individually numbered as a tangible reminder of the marine life saved from this deadly plastic, and includes coordinates to where the rescue took place.

Offering the highest optical clarity, scratch resistance, and full UV 400 protection. These lenses reduce glare and enhance your visual experience, whether itโ€™s a bright sunny day or an overcast adventure.

With every pair of sunglasses sold, ยฃ37.50 goes directly to the World Cetacean Alliance; the worldโ€™s largest partnership working to protect whales, dolphins, and porpoises, to support future cetacean conservation efforts.

So far, we've recycled 110716kg of marine plastic and your purchase will help us to increase this even further.

Excellent shades

I bought these shades largely based on the look and the eco credentials 'but' they are really excellent sunglasses too. Really effective lenses, polarised cut all glare and the tint gives just the right amount of protection, fairly dark but not a black out. Nice snug fit, not tight but no wiggle room, so don't slip when looking down. Moulded nose piece rather than separately nose clips, so no risk of bending the nose clip, which I've done before. Great style. I have just worn these for a week walking in sunny conditions and they are all day, super effective shades. Absolutely love them.

Top quality, excellent returns

The Pentire frames didn't quite suit my face, so I returned them. The returns procedure was very simple and free! Just perfect. Very happy with the Fitzroy pair I also ordered. Thanks Waterhaul! <3

Fantastic glasses

I love the fact that these are recycled, and wanted to support the company, and I have been seriously impressed by the quality and feel of these glasses. The build quality and finish is amazing. Above all else, they are probably the most comfortable glasses I have ever worn. The recycled material has such a lovely feel.

Great for driving

I contacted Waterhaul to ask which lenses to choose as I have light sensitivity and need dark lenses for driving. They gave me all the information I needed and the blue mirror lenses are helping with low winter sun and road reflections. Great clarity as well. Highly recommend

Saw it, tried it, bought it

I saw the glasses in a BeachBum store in Norway. Didn't need them but liked what I saw and tried them on. Kids enthusiastic, wife too, which is of course a powerfull indication that they look good on you. Then I learned about the cause and they became even more desirable. They are very comfortable and the lenses are really crisp and clear. I really like them! And that is quite a big thing since I've worn Oakley ever sinceโ€ฆ.well, a long time. They're great glasses and a great cause.

Quality shades, Quality company

These sunglasses are amazing, I love the way they look on me, the glass lens are top quality, and with the lifetime warranty I don't have to be extremely cautious using them. The fit was a little tight near the ears but they send instructions on how to adjust the fit easily. I especially love what the company is doing to clean up the oceans and I already bought another pair. If you're thinking about getting a pair of sunglasses, don't get name brand, get a pair that support a great cause!

Philip Longthorne
Excellent

Really impressed with the quality, and fit and finish of them. The lenses are superb, probably the best I've had. I bought them because of how they're made, willing to accept minor compromises but none were made. The best sunglasses I've owned.

So good my wife has stolen them

Hopefully I'll get them back soon, but from what I remember they're really well made and the lenses are brilliant. I like the touch/feel of the lenses too. Very helpful and responsive customer service too

Perfect gift for this time of year

It is summer in Australia and Christmas here means days on the beach and soaking up the sun (in the safest way possible!) So for my environmentally conscious partner, this was the perfect gift to protect his blue eyes, look and feel good. As well as the extra factor that this item, packaging and shipping included, was done in the most sustainable and environmentally friendly way possible. It arrived so quickly, excellent protective case. LOVE IT!

Having previously purchased some glasses for my wife, I was very pleased to find the larger framed Pentire recently.
Fabulous quality, fabulous polarised lenses, love the foldable case, really exceeded expectations, and also helped plant a tree in a mangrove
Top service, great products
Well done all at Waterhaul

Beautiful quality, fit and stylish colour

I received my first ever pair this week (a day or two after they were ordered online) and they have exceeded my expectations. I have quite a wide face so was worried about the Pentire style, but they are a really great fit. They feel very well made and the biggest surprise is the colour. It's not really that speckled but rather a stylish graphite colour. The cork carry case is a nice touch. Nice work Waterhauls.
