Product Description

The Ski Aviators pay homage to the most iconic ski sunglasses design ever made - a style that dominated ski culture in the 70s and early 80s. The epitome of cool, they were worn by everyone from the greatest skiers to the biggest movie stars - from VALLON ambassador Wayne Wong (who has his own Special Edition model) to Paul Newman and Robert Redford. They came in all different sizes and colors, and then they completely disappeared... We have made it our mission to return them to their former glory, now upgraded with exceptionally clear V52® lenses and a modern fit.

OPTICS

Mirrored V52® lenses

Look good, see good, ski good! The Ski Aviators take inspiration from a time when mirror coated lenses on the slopes were all the rage. The Ski Aviators feature VALLON’s proprietary V52® lens technology constructed from nylon polyamide to provide exceptional optical clarity (ABBE value 52), and 100% UV protection (UV400). They have the highest optical clarity of any performance sunglasses on the market, and are 20% lighter than comparative lenses.
