ABOUT:
The Vuarnet story began in the late 1950’s when visionary optician Roger Pouilloux gave French ski champion Jean Vuarnet a pair of his exceptional mineral lens sunglasses. A few months later, Jean Vuarnet went on to win the Gold Medal in downhill skiing at the 1960 Winter Olympics in Squaw Valley. Following this victory, the two men, who shared a common passion and vision, forged a friendship and joined forces to create a brand that reflected their character: innovative, high-performance and elegant.

Vuarnet is known for the uncompromising performance that its mineral glass lenses guarantee. Vuarnet’s lenses are distortion-free, have the highest clarity, durability and protect against all damaging effects of the sun – including UV rays, infrared, blue light.
