At American Paper Optics, we have always said that our glasses are "out of this world." This month, the crew of NASA’s Artemis II mission made that literal.

We're in the business of making people see the world better... or, apparently, block it out entirely!

As one of the top global manufacturers of 3D glasses, we've had a front-row seat to countless major events. We've tackled it all—from supplying hundreds of millions of glasses for a Super Bowl commercial to bringing an immersive 3D experience to the Grammy's. We thought we'd seen everything... until we were asked to produce the official Cringe Glasses for Rhett & Link's “Good Mythical Evening: Sloshed in Space”.

Yes, you heard that right. We essentially created thousands of tiny, fashionable blindfolds so the audience could actively opt-out of reality whenever the show got too awkward. We're proud to say we helped the Mythical Beasts keep their eyeballs safe from second-hand embarrassment. Honestly, we've never been prouder to make a pair of glasses designed to not be looked through. Keep the weird orders coming—we live for this stuff!
