LOOK FOR THE REXY ICON
Since 1996, SportRx has worked with top performance brands to outfit active enthusiasts like yourself with custom eyewear optimized for their specific sport or activity. We know there are a lot of options. That’s why we recognize the cream of the crop with the coveted REXY Award. Look for the REXY icon to help guide your choices. Gold REXYS signify award winners; silver REXYS signify award nominees. Shop with confidence knowing the REXY icon serves as a SportRx seal of approval, distinguishing what products come highly rated and optician recommended.
EVENT HIGHLIGHTS
One night a year, SportRx comes together with the leaders of the eyewear industry for the SportRx Awards. Here, we celebrate the products at the top of their game chosen from top brands in the industry. We toast the elite, the innovative, the movers and shakers.
It’s our job to help people see clearly… What if the first thing you put on in the morning and the last thing you took off at night was uncomfortable. What if they hurt your face? What if they didn't help you look the way you think the world looks at you. That’s pretty powerful.

BRADY MITCHELL
SPY
We’re celebrating more than just eyewear at the REXYs. We also want to highlight a person who has been a great partner and ally to SportRx. And that person is Brady! “Shady Brady’s” charisma and joy shines through in our videos and his wealth of SPY knowledge has helped us better serve our customers. He personifies SPY’s “See Happy. Be Happy” mantra and makes YouTube magic with Rob. Not only is Brady an incredible resource, but he is also an integral part of our team and for that, we thank you Brady!

PATSY RUELLAND
Nike
Patsy represents one of the most recognizable brands in the world, Nike. She is well-known and well-loved among SportRx staff members, and is the primary reason behind the successful business relationship between SportRx and Nike. As a sports optical veteran, Patsy has continually pushed for the forward progress of female representation in a predominantly male industry and beyond. She advocates for the needs of her customers and is known to be someone whom others can count on. Business aside, Patsy is a genuinely good human and we’re proud to call her family.

JIMMY SCHULTE
SMITH Optics
The most beloved man in the industry. No matter where you go, when you mention Jimmy people gush with praise and kind words. He is the next door neighbor everyone wants to have. He is the most hilarious, helpful and generous human you will find. Jimmy helps us with all of our SMITH needs, from asset sharing and creation to staring in our videos to getting what we need to make great content. Jimmy is the man.
2018
NICK FARNHAM
Oakley
With an entrepreneurial spirit, analytical mind and an incredible work ethic, Nick blazed the trail for incorporating SportRx into the Oakley Family. In return, he has become part of ours. You can find Nick in tons of our SportRx videos, naturally since he basically lives here. He is our road map, our guide. Nick is a man of his word.
