Gold medalist in the downhill event at the Squaw Valley 1960 Winter Olympic games, Jean Vuarnet became not only a legend in the ski world but also in the eyewear game when he teamed up with Roger Pouilloux to launch his Vuarnet sunglasses line. Well noted for creating sunglasses for the leisure-oriented sports and adventurous activities aficionados, vintage Vuarnet sunglasses remain a genuine icon in the sunglass game. The combination of their quality materials such as mineral glass (a material that is unaffected by deterioration and that makes the sunglasses immune to scratches) and their sporty yet seductive and elegant design made Vuarnet one of the most highly demanded sunglasses.
