Randolph's story

 

 

BORN FROM THE AMERICAN DREAM.

Former Royal Air Force navigator Jan Waszkiewicz and train driver Stanley Zaleski both immigrated to America with just a few dollars and a dream: to build the best sunglasses in the world.

In 1973, they opened the doors to their factory in a small town called Randolph, just outside of Boston, MA.

     

 

 

DESIGNED TO MILITARY STANDARDS
With an engineering background and some serious skills, they set out to build an eyewear company with their bare hands.

They built the machines that make sunglasses, and they purpose-built a product for the world's fiercest critics: the United States Department of Defense.

 

WHAT DO WE DO
At Randolph, we create sunglasses that are specially designed and handcrafted to perform at the highest level. For more than 40 years, we have supplied the US military with the best aviators in the world. And this is only the beginning.
