our story
Val Sanders and Michelle Haner
Born from a love of accessories — the cherry on top of a delicious outfit —twin sisters Val Sanders and Michelle Haner created SAINT OWEN for the visionaries who expect more than the ordinary. Shaped by their roots in the music industry and pages pulled from tour diaries, the brand channels the raw energy of the road into statement pieces that feel both intentional and timeless. Each design balances creativity with craftsmanship, delivering bold essentials meant to move with you. Unapologetic, enduring, and unmistakably your own.

ECO MATERIALS

From biodegradable acetate to deadstock fabric to recycled metals, our materials are always thoughtfully chosen to have the least impact on the environment.

ETHICAL DESIGN

We manufacture all of our products in small batches to avoid excess product. We use ethical factories supporting small businesses. 

GIVING BACK

We donate 5% of profits to GiveDirectly, a nonprofit sending money directly to the world's poorest households globally.

Small batch production
Each piece is meticulously designed with distinctive, custom accents and produced in small-batch runs to celebrate individuality. Grounded in top-tier quality and timeless silhouettes, Saint Owen moves beyond the whims of trend cycles to create true investment pieces, designed to endure, evolve, and be worn year after year.
INDEPENDENT BRAND
As an independent brand, Saint Owen moves fluidly through the eyewear space, placing a deliberate emphasis on singularity and exclusivity. The bar is raised through distinctive details: hand-painted lenses, laminated acetate, and meticulously studded frames.
