Services
We love living life on the water and after losing one too many pairs of expensive shades on the water, a husband and wife team out of Charleston, S.C. decided to put an end to the problem. Since selling out of the first two floating styles in 2016, Rheos has evolved into a collection of high-performance and stylish eyewear built for the water.
Enjoy sink proof technology in over 100 frame and lens combinations from our two collections of floating sunglasses. Our prescription line features Trivex lenses which are impact and shatter resistant just like Nylon. They are light enough to float with superior optical clarity. Our prescription service is done through our lens partner, Lensabl, based out of Beverly Hills, CA.
Designed by two like-minded South Carolina brands with a passion for coastal lifestyle, this collection was built for days on the water and life under the sun. Enjoy this foldable and durable sunglasses case and branded microfiber with your purchase of any Rheos x Southern Tide Signature Series shades.
Our shades are outfitted with the latest innovation in sunglass technology: Nylon Optics. No Better Lens. No Better Price. Our Nylon Optics capture all the benefits of a glass and polycarbonate lens without the drawbacks. These lenses are clearer than glass and light enough to be the most comfortable shades to ever grace your face.

These are the absolute best sunglasses I’ve ever owned. They look amazing and they float on water!!! Which is how I have lost so many expensive brand names sunglasses in the past. I love the fact I’m supporting a local business who give back by supporting so many local non profits. Their customer service is outstanding and I just can’t say enough great things about the Rheos team. Keep up the great work!
Happy Customer,

Based on my understanding, Rheos Gear is a relatively new startup. My wife and I each purchased a pair of Rheos sunglasses back in September 2020. We've received so many compliments about the look and style of these sunglasses. Our main reason for choosing Rheos is because they FLOAT. (You wouldn't believe how many pairs of sunglasses we've lost in water before switching to Rheos.) The downside to these sunglasses is that they're a bit fragile. My original pair broke at the hinge when I was pulling them off my head because one of the arms got momentarily stuck in my headband. My second pair broke
