"The whole process of getting spectacles from Banton was extremely straight forward. The glasses arrived and are the best ones I have ever had, well made and very sturdy. They were also considerably less expensive than poorer quality ones from the local optician. I wish I had used them before and would recommend them to anyone."
Stuart Tallboys
"Absolutely perfect experience with Banton Frameworks. Their frames are beautifully handcrafted and very comfortable to wear. Communication with Jamie is easy, fast and friendly, as well as the shipping. Without doubt, my first but not my last pair of glasses from them!"
Manuel Fuster
"I've had my 2 frames for a year now and still, every time I put them on I fall in love with them over again. They are beautiful. They feel great, look amazing, and the quality of the acetate and hinges and design is just awesome."
Ed Bryan
"I love my sunglasses; they are of excellent quality and very comfortable. Thanks a lot for all your work! I learned about your brand absolutely by accident when visiting London and saw a stranger on the street wearing very lovely sunglasses and asked him about them."
David K
"My experience was outstanding, particularly with the prescription lenses. Top notch customer service and absolute premium products. I highly recommend."
Jonathan Bennett
"This is my second pair of Banton beauties. What unbelievable quality. No other frame makers can match the quality and craftsmanship of this artisan and made in my homeland Scotland. Brilliant guys, keep doing what you're doing. Cheers!"
Gordon
"I live in Canada and was a tiny bit worried about ordering from Scotland, but I loved my first frames so much I buy a pair a year. The frames are sturdy, hinges are strong and their lens partner is outstanding. I love my Banton frames."
Michael Hanrahan
"Simply brilliant. I’ve got stuck in the generic 'spectacle trap' since Covid and I’d forgotten what quality made spectacles are like. I couldn’t be happier with my recent purchase. Customer service is also second to none. I was nervous of a remote purchase but it’s worked out amazingly."
Carl Dalton
"After finding Banton Frameworks I made the investment for Jamie and Lucy's handmade frames and honestly they're the best pair of glasses I've ever had! They look and feel superb, plus they're incredibly well crafted. I'd recommend Banton Frameworks to anyone considering a new pair of glasses, thank you!"
Adam Eckworth
"If you care about your eyewear, love modern and innovative design then this is truly the go to company for you. From the website through to the glasses and packaging every single step oozes quality. The craftsmanship is second to none. Outstanding eyewear, made in the UK."
Andrew Whetton
"The product is top notch. If you're looking for frames that are special and make a unique statement, Banton Frameworks is the frame for you. The website is easy to use with all of the information you could need to make your decision. The customer service is fantastic."
James Fitzgerald
"I was a bit apprehensive about buying frames online as a first time customer as I had previously bought frames from the high street. However, the frames that Jamie and Lucy produce are of excellent quality. I love the way the frames feel robust at the hinges when you open them - I think that’s a true testament to the craftsmanship that’s gone into making these glasses."
