Vuarnet has a history, it is unique. It began in 1957, rue Boissy d’Anglas in Paris in the Roger Pouilloux workshops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This avant-garde optician, passionate about skiing, will revolutionize the world of sunglasses by inventing an exceptional lens, the Skilynx, capable of both protecting it on the slopes and providing it with a view of the terrain, even on cloudy days.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

“An optician wanted me to wear his sunglasses, I wore them during the descent of the Olympic Games… They were phenomenal! I won. I won. He offered me a deal…. I couldn’t resist.<\/em><\/strong>\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is a meeting that will seal the creation of the eponymous brand VUARNET<\/strong>. It took place with Roger Pouilloux in 1959, when the optician offered the French ski champion the Frame02, as a token of his admiration. It is with these glasses equipped with the famous Skilynx lens, allowing him to better avoid the traps of the relief of the track of Squaw Valley that Jean Vuarnet will win the gold medal in downhill skiing at the Olympic Games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the end of this victory, the two men who share a common passion and vision befriend each other and decide to join forces to create a brand that reflects their image: innovative, efficient and elegant. The VUARNET house was born.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
