UV protection
Our lenses are blocking 100% UV radiation.
VLT-visual light transmittance:
Visual light transmittance is the amount of light in the visible portion of the spectrum that passes through a glazing material. All our lenses are under 15% VLT which assure a highly reflecting coating
Polarized
Polarized lenses eliminate glare from reflective surface. On snow the reflection can indicate ice or crevasses area. This is the reason why we do not use polarized lenses.
We are upcycling strings from old paragliders to use them as sunglasses cords. The strings are made out of Dynema®. They are delivered in aleatory colors depending on arrival. Take a minute to choose and tie your favorite knot!

Testimonials

Christine Vogondy
“When you reach the summit of K2, the last thing you want to worry about is whether your sunglasses are going to stay on. With my Moiry sunglasses, I was totally zen. They've been with me on all my 8,000- meter climbs!”

"I wore my Vorab sunglasses all week at La Cordée in Évolène—they're magical! In fact, my brother Tanguy borrowed them one day... and the next day he won a silver medal at the Slalom World Championships. Some say it was luck... I say it was Vorab."

"The morning light is low, I'm hanging from a winch, and the helicopter blades are spinning above my head. I have a patient to rescue, and at times like this, I'm glad I have sunglasses that stay on my nose!"
