La Loop: The Original Eyewear Necklace and Glasses Holder

La Loop pearl and gold eyewear loop accessory

Eyewear often becomes one of the most frequently used accessories in a person’s wardrobe, yet for years there was no elegant way to carry it between wears. La Loop changed that. By combining thoughtful engineering with the craftsmanship of fine jewelry, the company introduced an accessory that feels every bit as considered as the frames it protects.

At Adair Eyewear in Fort Worth, we believe exceptional eyewear deserves exceptional accessories. That’s why La Loop has earned a place alongside our carefully curated collection of designer eyewear. Whether you’re wearing prescription glasses, readers, or sunglasses, a La Loop necklace offers a refined way to keep your eyewear close while complementing your personal style.

If you’re also considering new frames, you’re invited to browse our collection of all luxury eyewear options available at our Fort Worth boutique.

The Story Behind La Loop

The idea for La Loop began with founder Elizabeth Faraut, who saw an everyday problem hiding in plain sight. Glasses were constantly being misplaced, tucked into shirt collars, balanced on heads, or slipped into pockets where they could easily be scratched or forgotten. Existing eyeglass chains solved part of the problem, but they lacked the elegance many people wanted from an accessory they wore every day.

Drawing on her background in fashion and product design, Faraut developed a patented hinged loop that offered a completely different approach. Introduced in 1999, La Loop became the first necklace created specifically to carry eyewear while maintaining the appearance of fine jewelry.

The design attracted attention well beyond the optical industry. The Museum of Modern Art Design Store recognized La Loop for its innovative design, and the collection soon found its way into respected retailers throughout the United States and abroad. More than 25 years later, La Loop is available in over 28 countries while remaining committed to the craftsmanship, originality, and everyday functionality that established its reputation.

That commitment extends beyond the products themselves. Through its LOOP IN initiative, La Loop supports charitable organizations nominated by members of its own community, reflecting a company culture built around generosity as much as good design.

What Makes La Loop Unique?

Every La Loop glasses holder begins with the same patented hinged loop that inspired the company’s name. The mechanism opens to receive your eyewear before closing securely around the frame, allowing the necklace to rotate naturally as you move. It feels intuitive in everyday use and eliminates the awkwardness of threading glasses through a fixed ring.

The collection is equally thoughtful in its materials. Many necklaces are handcrafted in the United States, while select leather components are produced in Italy using traditional leatherworking techniques. Sterling silver, gold-plated metals, Italian leather, freshwater pearls, natural gemstones, and artisan beadsappear throughout the collection, allowing each design to feel as refined as the eyewear it accompanies.

Some styles are understated enough for daily business wear, while others embrace bold textures and sculptural details that stand comfortably alongside fine jewelry. Across every collection, craftsmanship remains the common thread.

Why Invest in a La Loop Glasses Holder?

Luxury eyewear represents an investment in both vision and personal style. A La Loop necklace helps protect that investment while becoming part of your everyday routine.

Instead of setting your glasses on a conference table, carrying them in a pocket, or searching through a handbag, your eyewear remains secure and within easy reach. It’s a practical detail, but one that quickly becomes second nature for people who wear glasses throughout the day.

Just as importantly, La Loop complements premium eyewear rather than competing with it. The materials, proportions, and finish are designed with longevity in mind, making each piece feel just as appropriate years from now as it does today.

Our commitment to long-term eyewear care extends beyond the accessories we offer. Adair Eyewear also provides luxury optical services in Fort Worth for all frames, helping clients maintain the comfort, fit, and performance of the eyewear they wear every day.
