SKI SUNGLASSES
Aviators make a comeback
During the 70s, Ski Aviators were the most popular sunglasses on the mountain. They were worn by everyone, from new enthusiasts to the most well-known skiers - and then they disappeared. We made it our mission to bring them back.
COLLABORATION
Wayne Wong Edition
Known for his unique flair, daring ski ballet moves, and infectious smile, Wayne Wong is a freestyle skiing legend. 50 years after the iconic poster of Wayne sporting ski aviators and tricolor skis was produced, VALLON set out to recreate the exact same image, featuring a unique Wayne Wong Special Edition of these Ski Aviators.
APRÈS-SKI
80s-Inspired Hazlewood
A great looking design, the Hazlewood are a throwback to the oversized teardrop shapes of yesteryear. Everybody who was anybody owned a pair in the 80s. We have brought them back with a technical upgrade and modern fit.

Ski Aviators and Hazlewood are both fitted with Cat. 3 V52® mirror-coated lenses that protect your eyes in bright sunshine and help reflect glare off the snow. Heron Glacier, built with Cat. 4 shatterproof lenses are the best choice for extreme high-altitude brightness, or glacial terrain.
For low-light or flat-light conditions, choose a Cat. 1 yellow lens (as offered in the Ski Aviators Low-Light or Heron Low-Light). Yellow lenses have a high VLT (75–77%) that brightens your view of the terrain, and improves contrast definition.
