More than 95% of our inventory consists of wholesale sunglasses. Let's face it, selling wholesale sunglasses has made Olympic Eyewear the company it is today. But we do have a small section of our inventory devoted to accessories. We feel these items are every bit as important as the sunglasses themselves.
