Boring? Expensive? Dull? Jimmy Fairly was born, not with a want but a need to revolutionise the optical industry. Founded in 2010 by Antonin Chartier, a 23‑year‑old psychology student with a passion for entrepreneurship, the concept was simple: quality glasses, fair prices and a positive social impact. Over a decade later, little has changed. With more than 100 stores across Europe and the UK, Jimmy Fairly continues to bring great style and a smile to the optical world, dropping on‑trend designs every six weeks while preserving quality and sustainability. A customer‑centric approach runs from the moment a customer enters a store to having their eyes tested by expert optometrists and supported by our exceptional after‑care team.
Better everyday!
Since day one, we have partnered with Restoring Vision, the international charity committed to ending the global vision crisis. Find out more at www.jimmyfairly.co.uk and on Instagram @jimmyfairly.
