Startup to Launch 3-D Printed Sunglasses from Recycled Plastics

Clothing fads come and go, but there is one trend in fashion that is sure not to fade away: the growing trend of manufacturing environmentally sound clothing and accessories. One fashion startup, U.S.-based KickFly's, has made this its goal as it has set out to design and manufacture 3-D printed sunglasses made from recycled plastics.

KickFly's was founded by Justin Capoccia, Colin Young and John-Michael Fragnoli, three childhood friends from Niskayuna, N.Y., who decided after college to go into business together. The idea to design and make sunglasses came from a shared interest in the accessory, as Capoccia and Young brainstormed ways to make their product special.
