Shwood is a company out of Portland, Oregon that is carving a niche for itself as the go-to place for [wooden eye-wear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/material-matters-collection). The Shwood sunglasses come in Maple, East Indian Rosewood and Zebrawood and the lenses are by Carl Zeiss.

With a fair price tag of $95 USD to $115 USD (depending if you spring for the [polarized lenses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heavy-tropix-sport) or not), these Shwood sunglasses really capture that down to earth look you have been going for.

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out
