Would You Rock This? | Urban x Fashion

Made in France, the glasses are made of carbon fiber and designed with a nose piece to absorb shock, rotating tips to keep the glasses from falling off, double springs at the temple for safety and a protective brow bar to absorb a frontal jolt.



Jean-Claude Killy of France, the Olympic gold medalist in downhill skiing, has helped develop sunglasses designed for serious athletes. Killy agreed to lend his name to the eyewear with one major stipulation: that the design team create a product that he could wear skiing down a couloir, a steep mountain snow chute. The sunglasses are priced between $1,300 and $3,000.
