Specs Makers? new glasses showroom opens in Nottingham

A new concept in glasses and frames has opened its doors in Nottingham, with an outlet approach to pricing and a big store approach to choice.

Specs Makers, located on Queens Drive Industrial Estate, is the definitive destination for the savvy shopper who demands glasses of paramount quality with a pocket friendly price. The Nottingham spectacle showroom is stocked with coveted designer and favourite high street frames and lenses, with a product catalogue of every current frame available to order on request, and a promise to deliver the lowest price, best quality pair of complete glasses in the region. The store brings a unique outlet approach to dispensing optics, offering a complete service that cuts out the middle man for savings of up to 70%.

Outlet’s are becoming increasingly popular and are the logical choice for shoppers who don’t want to compromise on quality, choice or value for money. The Specs Makers store is set out like a traditional shop, with rows of new season and classic frames from cool designers such as Chanel, Radley, Superdry and Ray Ban. There is also a well-stocked selection of sleek and chic unbranded frames and lenses, as well as a choice to fit them with high end specification lenses such as Zeiss and Nikon.

James Hunter, founder of Specs Makers said, “We’re passionate about offering Nottingham’s shoppers a smarter way to do things. Many people head down to the opticians out of habit but don’t realise that they are paying a premium for lenses and frames at a high street location with the associated overheads. Specs Makers is a brand new concept in eye care and fashion and one that we are positive Nottingham shoppers are going to love! If wearing handmade titanium frames would normally cost you over £300, then why not just come direct and pay £160? We offer a practical way to balance the finances without holding back from your dream pair of specs.”

Whether you are reglazing your existing frame or buying a whole new pair of glasses, the Specs Makers factory outlet couples an enjoyable, relaxed shopping experience with a reassuring breadth of choice.

Despite only officially opening its doors this month, the Nottinghamshire outlet has already scored an impressive 9.8 out of 10 on TrustPilot, an online rating system that invites real shoppers to review the store and score their experiences.

James says: “High Street shopping has taken a battering over recent years as the internet makes it so easy for shoppers to log on and search for the better deals. However, when buying something like glasses, a click of the mouse can’t replace the need to touch, feel and try on your product before making a purchase. But, this shouldn’t come at a cost. Glasses factory outlets are popular up and down the country, but Nottingham was without one, so I decided to set up SpecsMakers.

Specs Makers clients are invited to try the products before they buy, all for the same price as they are able to find online. Customers are also offered a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee policy, making Specs Makers the only optical outlet to offer such a pledge on both lenses and frames.
