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 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.
