Quotes
This limited-edition collection has been created as a tribute to one of the world’s most celebrated football players during a year when global attention is focused on football. We are pleased to offer our customers a unique product in a limited edition.
The World Cup is special for every player. Of course football is always the main thing, but during moments like this it’s also nice to show a bit more of your personality away from the pitch as well,
When we launched Synsam Lifestyle in 2016, we challenged an established industry logic. Eyewear was traditionally seen as a product purchased every three or four years. Today, approximately 770,000 customers have chosen a model where eye health and regular updates are managed once a year. This shows how much customer behavior has changed over the past decade and is reminiscent of developments in areas such as private car leasing.
We recognized early on that people do not live the same life all the time. Vision changes, needs change, and eyewear needs to keep up. That is why we wanted to create a model based on the customer’s everyday life rather than a single product transaction.
The best thing about the subscription is that my eyes are checked regularly. I can visit the store whenever I want and receive support when my needs change. I think it is exciting to see which new frames have arrived, and I appreciate the opportunity to have several pairs of glasses to choose from.
For me, the details are crucial – both on the pitch and in everyday life. This collection reflects my personal style and how I want things to look, feel, and function.
We are incredibly proud that Erling Haaland has chosen Synsam for his very first international product partnership under his own name. As a leading player in the Nordic optical market, Synsam stands for new thinking and innovation, with a strong focus on fashion, which makes it a match made in heaven. The partnership is a major investment for Synsam and an exciting step into a completely new market – international e-commerce. It is a unique opportunity for us to try new sales channels in a live setting.
Synsam has long been a personal favorite, and I have always appreciated their style and quality as a customer. With my strong interest in fashion and design, it feels very exciting to partner with Synsam and be part of creating the eyewear collection. I really look forward to sharing the frames with fans, teammates, and Synsam’s customers.
