Discovery and Concept

Izipizi was founded in Paris in 2010 by three childhood friends—Charles Brun, Xavier Aguera, and Quentin Couturier. The brand was initially launched under the name 'See Concept' with a unique goal: to reinvent reading glasses. Their first innovative product was a 'reading glass on a stick' placed in public spaces like banks and post offices.

Evolution and Manufacturing

The brand rebranded to Izipizi in 2017 to better reflect its fun, colorful, and accessible identity. While headquartered and designed in Paris, the manufacturing process is centered in Asia to maintain high production volumes and cost-effectiveness. Most frames are produced in China and Taiwan using high-quality materials like polycarbonate, ensuring they remain lightweight and durable.

Global Presence and Ownership

Izipizi has grown into a global powerhouse in the lifestyle sector, operating as an independent French company. It is known for its universal designs that cater to all ages, from infants to seniors, and its commitment to reducing its carbon footprint through sustainable materials. The brand remains privately held by its founders, emphasizing its creative autonomy and French heritage.
