Warby Parker, the lifestyle brand committed to vision for all, has entered a three-year partnership with Texas Longhorns quarterback Arch Manning. A glasses wearer since age three and a longtime Warby Parker customer, Manning embodies the brand’s mission of empowering confidence through clear vision. Under this partnership, Arch will sport Warby Parker’s stylish, high-quality eyewear tailored to fit his active lifestyle both on and off the football field.
Arch Manning expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration, saying, “They’ve always been my go-to glasses—I have a pair for every part of my life—and their Buy a Pair, Give a Pair program really resonates with me.” The partnership will be highlighted by the premiere of a new commercial featuring Arch and his father, Cooper Manning, during the Texas Longhorns’ first game of the season. This content will offer a personal glimpse into Arch’s journey with glasses, blending family moments with the importance of clear vision.
Over the next three years, Warby Parker and Arch Manning will embark on initiatives including new eyewear collections and local Austin community programs through Warby Parker’s Pupils Project, which focuses on school-based vision health. This innovative and first-of-its-kind partnership for Warby Parker marks a new direction for the brand and marks Manning’s inaugural eyewear endorsement.
Neil Blumenthal, Warby Parker’s co-founder and co-CEO, praised Arch as an exceptional athlete whose vision extends beyond the game. “He’s been a customer for years, and now we’re excited to officially have him on our team,” said Blumenthal. “I can’t wait to see what we accomplish together.”
