The most iconic sunglasses of the 70s makes a comeback.
The Surf Aviators from VALLON are a throwback to the most iconic sunglasses of the 70s.
The epitome of cool, this iconic style of sunglasses used to be worn by literally everyone, from Jimi Hendrix to George Harrison, Sam Peckinpah, Steve McQueen, Bruce Lee, Ursula Anderson, Ringo, Robert Redford and even Arnold. They came in all different sizes and colors, but then they completely disappeared…
Sports eyewear specialists VALLON have taken the original design, which dominated ski and movie culture in the 70s and early 80s, and upgraded it with high-performance lens technology and a more modern fit. In addition to the Ski Aviators-range that feature anti-reflective mirror lenses, the Surf Aviators is a polarized version featuring classic green G15 lenses made from their proprietary V52® lens technology, matching a premium frame with high-performance optics. The name “Surf Aviators” is a reference to the polarized lenses, as these are most beneficial when on or near water, to distinguish them from the non-polarized Ski Aviators.
The aviator-shaped frame is handmade from high-quality acetate: a non-petroleum-based material that is hypoallergenic, durable, and lightweight all in one. There is a shiny finish to the acetate, which gives the Surf Aviators a truly premium look and feel. They are recommended for medium and wide faces and come in multiple colorways.
Why this classic style ever disappeared is a mystery, all we know is that we are glad they are back, ready to bring a touch of 70s style and personality to your shades!
The Surf Aviators are available here from the VALLON store.
