Born from technology and a love of skiing, Vuarnet debuted as a brand in the 60s but got its start when French optician Roger Pouilloux designed his special lenses for the avid ski enthusiasts of France.

In the 70s and 80s the brand took off as it appealed not only to winter athletes, but also to people looking for a modern style of sunglasses that provided practical protection with quality and durable build.

Vuarnet lenses are manufactured in Meaux, France from the finest materials sourced ethically from nearby resources that limit environmental impact.
