Our Story

For the slow afternoons. For the long drives. For the days worth slowing down.

The Timothy Matthew Promise

Frames, worth the look.

Timothy Matthew

A simple idea, well made.

The southern European lifestyle... sun soaked beaches, slow moving days, unbeatable culture... and... incredible sunglasses.

We make sunglasses for people who want to feel this lifestyle, without actually being there. We have no flashy logos, no trend chasing, just well made sunglasses that look better the longer you wear them.

Inspired by Italy

Born from Italian design.

Most of us can agree that Italy has been making some of the greatest eyewear for a long time, and it shows. The proportions, the styles, the colors, you name it, they just get it right.

To be clear, our frames are not made in Italy. They're produced internationally so we can keep the quality up while charging fair prices. What we believe matters most is that our designs share these styles, and make you look like you bought from a small shop in Milan.

"For the slow afternoons. For the long drives. For the days worth slowing down."

Our Philosophy

The Collection

Every frame, named after a place.

As you can see on our website, each product is named after somewhere along or close to the Mediterranean... Santorini, Valencia, Amalfi. Places where time moves a little slower and you don't want to be anywhere else.

When you wear our pieces, we hope you feel a little closer to that place.
