French eyewear brand Vuarnet’s UV-protective sunglasses are an unbeatable staple for the sports crowd — but as any athlete knows, there’s always room for improvement. In its second collaboration with luxury label Marine Serre, the duo has created a pair of frames that doesn’t just protect your vision, it also prioritizes the planet. The new Visionizer sunglasses are constructed using completely natural, biodegradable, and recycled materials.
Nearly everything is sustainably sourced, but the shades don’t compromise on functionality or durability. Marine Serre and Vuarnet both have a knack for conscious manufacturing and use castor seeds as the main material for the lenses. As an homage to their French roots, the lenses are also made from 100 percent natural sand found on the outskirts of Paris.
