BEST OF BOTH WORLDS: VINTAGE-STYLE SUNGLASSES WITH MODERN PERFORMANCE

Vintage styles—whether in cars, fashion, or eyewear— bring a sense of nostalgia and charm that modern designs just can’t replicate. While today’s designs undoubtedly benefit from advanced research, delivering greater functionality and performance, there’s an undeniable charm in the old-school designs that keeps pulling us back, holding onto our hearts with a quiet, irresistible magic. And of course, when it comes to fashion, vintage never goes out of style!
We, here at Glacier Optics, have decided to combine the style of the yesteryears with the functionality of modern age to offer the best of both worlds to our discerning customers. Our collection of retro sunglasses and prescription glasses combines the vintage classy looks and today’s visual clarity to ensure highest performance.

THE ENDURING APPEAL OF VINTAGE SPECTACLES

From the timeless aviator sunglasses first worn by 1930s pilots to the bold frames of the 1960s made iconic by Hollywood, these designs have become enduring symbols of style. Vintage sunglasses bring out a sense of adventure and individuality, while maintaining sophistication. In a world where fashion trends change every few weeks, vintage eyewear designs have defied the odds to remain as classy as ever.
Understanding this timelessness, we bring together experiences of the explorers, adventurers, and pioneers of the last century to design our vintage-look sunglasses. Glacier Optics combine the elements of some of these iconic designs and bring them into the 21st century in the form of durable, lightweight, and stylish frames with optimized functionality.

CRAFTED FROM THE FINEST MATERIALS

While we keep the designs vintage, we keep our materials cutting-edge. We fashion these glasses in titanium frames that offer visual clarity without any pressure or pain on the edge of the nose or ears due to their light weighted. So you can wear Glacier Optics sunglasses or prescription glasses for extended periods of time without pain or worry.

Our glasses also come in models with removable shields, providing extra protection from the elements for those who enjoy outdoor activities. You can add or remove these shields depending on the weather and the type of activity to enjoy greater protection from the chilly weather, harmful UV rays as well as dust and pollution – all the while looking like a movie star out of a classic movie.

ZEISS LENSES ARE MADE FROM POLYAMIDE

To complement our highest-quality frames, we ensure that our lenses are also from the highest quality material, which is why we have taken Zeiss lenses – one of the world’s leading optics companies – on board. They manufacture lenses from polyamide. Zeiss lenses are as popular for their visual clarity as they are for being unbreakable and scratch resistant.

Polyamide lenses are the modern day better alternative to mineral lenses. While the latter are traditionally popular for their cheap costs, they incur more costs in terms of heavier weight and higher risk of breakage and injury. Zeiss polyamide lenses, on the other hand, are lightweight and also virtually unbreakable, making them an ideal choice for those who live an active lifestyle. Whether you're into hiking rugged mountains or skiing across glaciers, our vintage designs infused with modern technology are your perfect shield against glare, UV rays, and other environmental dangers.

ADVENTURERS OF THE LAST CENTURY ARE OUR INSPIRATION

We take our cues from the aviators, explorers, and mountaineers of the past century who chose their eyewear not only for its functionality but also for impeccable style. Aviator sunglasses, in particular, have such a rich heritage, from their discovery as military and pilots gear in the 1930s to the fashion choice of adventurers and style icons in later days. We honor this legacy by creating eyewear that continues their adventurous spirit and refusal to compromise on style along with the innovation of modern technology.

Whether you're after top-tier mountain sunglasses or classic aviators for your prescription lenses, we offer options that honour the spirit of adventurers while delivering the best in visual clarity and comfort. With Glacier Optics, you can embrace the elegance of the past while benefiting from today’s cutting-edge materials and technology. Live the retro style without sacrificing modern performance!
