How onboarding works

  1. Reply to the line sheet email. Tell us your store, your aesthetic, your guest demographic. One short paragraph is enough.
  2. We confirm fit. We send a curated selection of 12 or 20 designs that match your aesthetic. You approve or swap any frame before the order ships.
  3. First order ships in 3 to 5 business days. Free display case included. Tracking sent the day it leaves the workshop.
  4. Net 30 reorders. Once you have a payment history, all reorders move to Net 30 terms. Order Friday, ships next week, invoice 30 days out.

What you get with the partnership

  • Territory protection. We do not stack two wholesale partners in the same trade area. If you anchor a town, you anchor it alone.
  • Lifetime frame warranty. Any pair, any partner, any time. We replace, you do not eat the cost.
  • Authorized dealer status. Cali Life is not on Amazon. Your retail floor is not undercut by a marketplace.
  • Polarized UV400 lenses on every frame. Real California wood, bamboo, or eco-friendly acetate. Spring hinges. Designed in San Diego, engraved on every temple.
  • Direct line to the founder. Reorder questions, design swaps, custom co-branded runs all go through one inbox.
