HOW IT STARTED

Hyspecs' founder, Peter, always dreaded wearing safety glasses on the job—they scratched easily, fogged up, and frankly, made him look ridiculous. Disappointed by the lack of better options online, he became obsessed with creating a superior safety eyewear. He started sketching designs and even learned 3D modeling through YouTube tutorials. Three weeks later, his first concept was born, but it wasn't until a full year of design testing and 26 iterations later that Peter received his first production model of Hyspecs in the mail. It was indeed a good day. Now, he's thrilled to share them with all you stylish folks!

Hyspecs emerged from a passion project centered around one question: How can we stop dreading safety glasses? We should wear them because we want to, not because we have to. When you slip on a pair of Hyspecs, it's like donning your favorite pair of sunglasses — feeling both stylish and confident. You'll wonder how something so beneficial can also make you feel so great.

So, go ahead and treat yourself to a pair of Hyspecs. We promise, you'll never want to go back to your dad's old safeties again!

BREAKING MOLDS, BUILDING DREAMS

When I was born, I was placed inside a box. It was a nice box, it provided all the essentials like nourishment and security a child needed. I was told that as long as I settled in the box, I would lead a safe and happy life. All I had to do was to follow these simple steps: study hard (no dating before college), get a useful degree, find a job, work hard, buy a house, and start a family. Fast forward three decades as I followed those exact steps, I was in the box, warm, well-fed, and unfulfilled.

It took me years to realize what was missing and what had to be done: I had to abandon my box. As a child of an immigrant family, memories of my struggling parents building my box made the decision especially difficult. However, now as a father, I needed to show my son that it's important to tread his own path. And it’s okay to take risks, to fail and feel vulnerable, because that is "living life to the fullest" and the only way to find out what you truly love doing.

I built Hyspecs with similar intention as my parents did when they immigrated to Canada, to create a better future for our family. Perhaps more importantly, I want it to be an inspiration for my son, to always choose courage over comfort, and to discover passion through perseverance.

Hyspecs is ultimately about loving what you do, but not only about finding it, it’s about the process and the struggle, it's about stepping out of your comfort zone and saying YES! to new adventures

- it’s about stepping out of your box.

Thanks for being part of our story!
