About iPOP Eyewear New Zealand

Your Go-To Kiwi Brand for Affordable, Stylish Sunnies

For over 16 years, iPOP Eyewear has been helping Kiwis find affordable sunglasses that don't skimp on quality.

What started in 2009 as a small TradeMe side hustle is now one of New Zealand's biggest online sunglasses stores. We've grown from just ten designs to hundreds of styles, including our own iPOP branded sunglasses and accessories.

We've Kept Our Prices Low — On Purpose

The cost of living has gone up for everyone over the past few years. Shipping costs, supplier prices, the lot. We made a decision early on not to pass that on. Our eyewear prices haven't moved in years and we've actually cut our shipping rates rather than raise them — absorbing the hit ourselves rather than loading it onto the customer.

It's not a marketing line. It's just how we think a small Kiwi business should operate, especially when people are watching every dollar. Good sunnies shouldn't be a luxury and we intend to keep it that way.

Fast Shipping, No Overseas Wait Times

Unlike some online stores that ship from overseas, we're based right here in Nelson NZ. Most orders arrive within a couple of days.

We handpick our sunnies from a handful of trusted suppliers and every pair comes with a money-back guarantee. Not happy? Send them back for a full refund.

Polarised Sunnies and Blue Light Glasses

Our polarised sunglasses are our bestsellers — they block 100% of UV rays and cut glare properly, which matters a lot in New Zealand's sun. We also stock blue light glasses for anyone spending long hours in front of a screen.

Wholesale Sunglasses for NZ Businesses

With a wide range of colours and styles there's something to suit everyone. We also wholesale sunglasses across NZ to selected retailers — good quality shades at prices that make sense for small businesses.
