Now introducing iKen Shades, the customizable fashion statement that changes the eye wear game! Inspired by my first product, iKen Watches: a build-your-own watch system, iKen Shades are a perfect combination of fashion, versatility and fun! Our patent-pending design, has polarized lenses that also give you 100% UV protection. The shades are made from 5 independent components, that you pick in the colors of your choice and put together to build your very own pair of customized shades. As the lenses are surrounded with a colored rim and paired with a frame and 2 arms in your choice of individual colors, you have the possibility of shades, with 5 colors! iKen shades offer customization and quality at a price affordable to everyone.
I was born and raised in London, England after my parents migrated from Africa. My Dad started out as a sales rep in the UK gift industry, before creating his own brand of products with my Mum and becoming a vendor to the ethnic gift market. I moved to the US in 2007 with the multi-national corporation I was with at the time.
Coming from a family of entrepreneurs, it was only a matter of time before I packed in my job, put my life savings in to my dream and launched my own product here in the United States. Last year, I launched the iKen brand with my line of build-your-own watches and would now like to introduce iKen Shades (build-your-own-shades) to our portfolio!
It’s hard to put in to words, what your support would mean to me and the iKen brand. If we raise our goal, we will be able to put iKen Shades in to mass production, get them out to you, our fans and to stores nationwide. Please share our campaign with friends and family to help us reach our goal. Thank you! www.indiegogo.com
