Vuarnet is the iconic French eyewear mountaineering brand, founded by Jean Vuarnet and optician Roger Pouilloux in 1957. Jean Vuarnet, a talented French skier, won the Olympic downhill gold medal at the 1960 Winter Olympics. A great lover of mountains and nature, he notably created the Avoriaz ski resort in 1966, the first French resort without cars, with an avant-garde vision of eco-responsibility. Today, Vuarnet produces its mineral glass lenses in its own French factory, using traditional manufacturing methods unchanged since its inception. Vuarnet mineral glasses, 100% natural and recyclable, provide the best protection against sunlight sunflection thanks to Lynx™ technology. Since 1957, the brand has offered timeless classic iconic frames that are still best sellers. Vuarnet brings its over 60 years of mountain expertise to its full offering of curated knitwear, apparel and skiwear, further expanding the brand's position as the new mountain standard. Vuarnet embraces its roots in 1960s skiing, nostalgia for craftsmanship, and the art of living in the French mountains.
