4 reasons why you need Ski Aviators in your sunglasses collection
Some items of ski clothing and equipment are simply timeless, and the classic Ski Aviators are one of them. Luckily for us, VALLON has brought back these sunglasses with style and panache for the modern skier.
Here’s 4 reasons why we think you should have a pair in your ski collection.
70s are making a comeback
Whatever happened to those ski aviators from decades past? We all had them, and major celebrities Paul Newman and Robert Redford would not be seen skiing without. And then in the blink of an eye they were gone. Thankfully, VALLON made it their mission to bring back these fantastic sunglasses for us oldies (and the next generation) to enjoy once more.

2. New technical upgrade
My old pair of ski aviators have seen better days. The frames have gone brittle, and the lens quality was never any good.
VALLON’s Ski Aviators bring this classic style into the 21st century, built with lightweight cellulose acetate frames with a glorious high shine finish - just like the shades of decades past that we loved so much. Attention to detail has not been spared with the iconic 2-pin design that really completes the look.

3. Taking care of your eyes
Speaking of those old-school lenses, we are glad to say the days of snow blindness and over-exposure from the sun are long gone. VALLON takes eye comfort and protection seriously, and their Ski Aviators guarantee 100% UVA/UVB protection.
We love the wider shape of these shades that offer a little extra side protection from the sun’s rays on bluebird days. In the mountains, Cat. 3 sun protection is a minimum, and a “non-negotiable” in terms of eye protection.
The Ski Aviators are finished with a mirror coating, which has the dual function of reflecting more of that dangerous UV radiation; and giving the additional benefit of looking extra cool!

4. Superb retro colours
Last, but not least: from a veritably retro Teal Green to classic Red, White and Blue ‘Tricolor’ frames, VALLON has the best selection of colors for anyone seeking that truly retro vibe.
It’s a style of sunglasses that I come back to time and time again, and with more than one pair in my collection, I’ll be sure to be adding more colorways soon.
