Vuarnet Sunglasses – Don’t Call it a Comeback

Quality never goes out of style and the new collection of Vuarnet Sunglasses illustrates this perfectly. Between the 1960′s and the 1990′s Vuarnet was synonymous with top-quality and stylish eyewear for the outdoor athlete. They were made popular by their namesake, skier Jean Vuarnet, but were soon ubiquitous in the world of downhill skiing, snowboarding, boating, and almost any other outdoor activity. In fact, Corey Shapiro, competitive skier, sunglass aficionado, and blogger remembers that “all the coolest dudes on the ski hill were wearing . . . Vuarnet Sunglasses.”

Vuarnet Sunglasses

Vuarnet Sunglasses are now available online at FramesDirect.com

Vuarnet’s popularity skyrocketed and reached an unbelievable pinnacle when, during the 1984 Olympics, the radio station DJs would refer to the best days of The Games as “Vuarnet Days.” The 1990′s introduced Vuarnet to surfers on the west coast and made an even bigger name for itself in the water-sport scene when it sponsored the America’s Cup in 1995. Vuarnet has remained on the eyewear scene and has been working on developing new and improved lenses and frames that are made not just for the extreme sports enthusiast but for the Urban Adventurer as well.

One of Vuarnet’s new lenses is the Citylynx lens which is a revolutionary lens crafted to provide visual comfort perfectly suited for life in an urban environment. These lenses are perfect for both fashion-minded urbanites on the go or and for those extreme urban athletes who practice the art of parkour. The Citylynx lens brings the style and quality of Vuarnet off of the ski slopes and down into the Urban Jungle.

Vuarnet Sunglasses CollectionVuarnet is proud of its new lens technology, but it is also proud of its newest designs and styles. Vuarnet is not just a sports brand but an actual lifestyle that combines tradition, comfort, modernity, and fashion. The new styles range from retro wayfarer designs and new takes on aviators to modern wraparounds and unique playful designs.

The new Vuarnet collection will be sold in the United States exclusively with FramesDirect.com, so the quality will run straight through from the service right to the brand new Vuarnet frames and lenses. Outdoor sports fanatics, urban adventurers, and fashionistas alike can now join FramesDirect.com and Vuarnet to fulfill Vuarnet’s goal to have everyone enjoy life everyday.

New Contact Lenses Launched

This week at FramesDirect.com we have four new contact lenses available to purchase. With various uses, check these contacts out and see which best suits your individual needs!

Acuvue Advance Plus Contact LensesAcuvue Advance Plus – Up first, the Acuvue Advance Plus contact lens. These lenses are designed to be replaced every two weeks (with daily wear) and work with near or farsightedness. UV (90% UVA – 99%UVB) protection HYDRACLEAR technologies are present as well. The UV protection and overall comfort of these contacts are what bring people back again and again. So if you are in the sun and want some extra protection for your eyes, Acuvue Advance Plus contacts are a great choice.


Air Optix Aqua Multifocal Contact LensesAir Optix Aqua Multifocal – The second contact we have for you this week is the Air Optix Aqua Multifocal from Ciba Vision. Designed with TriComfort Technology, they have unparalleled breathability and moisture retention. They provide a smooth transition from focal point to focal point, and also resist buildup. These are great for individuals approaching 40 or older, and that don’t like the look of bifocals or readers.

Biofinity Toric Contact LensesBiofinity Toric – Next, the Biofinity Toric contact lens from Coopervision in which their most advanced lens material has finally been utilized for those with astigmatism. Nearly eight of ten patients with astigmatism preferred the Bioifinity Toric contact lens, based mainly on comfort and durability. The materials are what really set this contact lens above the others. The lens actually is treated to help keep your eyes moisturized and refreshed during the day. This is a highly rated contact lens.

Biofinity Multifocal Contact LensesBiofinity Multifocal – The final contact lens that is new this week at Frames Direct is the Biofinity Multifocal contact lens. This, like many other Coopervision contacts, is designed for performance and durability. But this silicone hydrogel lens is designed for people with Presbyopia (vision changes that come with age). This contact lens really covers all bases and works for improving vision near or far. There is even an extended wear option for those who require overnight wear.
