Coral Eyewear to produce Paddington glasses & sunglasses

Coral Eyewear has today announced a new partnership with STUDIOCANAL Kids
& Family which will see the British Brand launch Paddington TM-themed glasses and sunglasses for children.

The new collection features the lovable bear on the outside of the glasses with
colours inspired by Padington’s blue duffle coat, red hat and love of orange marmalade. The collection, which features designs suitable for children ranging from ages 4-10, also features subtle nods to Paddington including paw prints on the inside temple.

The launch comes before the highly anticipated 3rd feature film Paddington in Peru
which will be released in UK cinemas on 8th November, followed by the rest of the
world and opening in the US on 17th January 2025.

The Paddington collection marks the first children’s designs for Coral Eyewear which has built up a strong network of optical stockists and the new collection will also becreated with recycled and bio-based materials. The brand also provides
high-performance sunglasses to the Great Britain Cycling Team as an official
supplier.

Co-founder of Coral Eyewear George Bailey said: “Paddington is one of the most
iconic characters in the world and is loved by multiple generations. We’re thrilled to
be launching Paddington into the children’s eyewear market and we’re already
seeing a lot of excitement from practice owners and young glasses wearers.”

“We are delighted to be partnering with Coral Eyewear on such a fun line of glasses
featuring the beloved Paddington. The beautiful designs bring to life the character’s
playfulness to delight children age 4-10. We’re excited to see young glasses wearers embark on new adventures with Paddington.” commented Rachel Clarke, SVP UK, Licensing & Retail at STUDIOCANAL Kids & Family
