Dave Portnoy x Randolph USA

What happens when two Massachusetts-born originals team up? You get Made In The USA eyewear with attitude…and a deep American heritage. 

Randolph USA and Dave Portnoy have come together for a limited-edition collaboration celebrating the spirit of building something real from the ground up. No shortcuts. No fluff. Just pure American made hustle, next level craftsmanship, and a whole lot of character.

Meet Dave Portnoy

Founder of Barstool. Tastemaker. Boston Original.

If you're not familiar, Dave Portnoy is the founder of Barstool Sports—a digital media powerhouse that started as a humble sports betting newsletter and grew into a cultural juggernaut. Raised in Massachusetts, Dave built his empire with a no-nonsense, brick-by-brick mentality. Like any true Bostonian, his approach was unfiltered, unapologetic, and fiercely independent.

He built his brand the same way we built ours: by refusing to sell out.

What began as content for the everyday fan turned into a movement. From his viral One Bite Pizza Reviews to rallying support for small businesses during the pandemic, Dave has earned a rare kind of loyalty. He’s known for spotting quality, calling it like he sees it, and never backing down.

A Shared Legacy: Built for the Bold

From hustling Entrepreneurs to household names, Randolph USA and Dave Portnoy share one core belief: never wait for permission, do it how you want to. 

Randolph USA was founded in a small Massachusetts workshop by two immigrants committed to crafting the world’s most durable eyewear. Dave built Barstool Sports from grit, instinct, and a relentless “figure it out” mentality that flipped the media world on its head.

Different industries. Same energy. That’s what makes this collaboration work.
