Why Visit Hobie® Eyewear at ICAST?

At the heart of everything Hobie® Eyewear brings to the show is a belief that great gear shouldn’t come at the planet's expense. From frames made of 100% upcycled kayak plastic to bio-based polarized lenses derived from castor oil, Hull Float is more than just a product—it’s a statement of purpose.

“Sustainability isn’t a trend we’re chasing—it’s a legacy we’re building,” said Dylan Coates, Marketing Manager for Hobie® Eyewear. “ICAST is the perfect place to show how our commitment to cleaner waters and better gear go hand in hand.”
