Traditional mountaineering glacier glasses and timeless classics worthy of Gaston Rébuffat himself! Reissued to celebrate the Chamonix alpine scene, and though they look totally cool, they are also practical Cat 3 mountaineering glacier glasses with modern lenses and leather side shields.

Cat. 3 polycarbonate lens (visible light transmission rate: 5%) with an anti-reflective coating that improves visual comfort by eliminating stray reflections. The flash finish improves filtration of visible light by applying a mirror effect to the lens which blocks sunlight and increases the filter effect. Recommended for sports exposed to conditions with strong glare such as alpine mountaineering, they are also fine for driving in.

  • 360° Adjustable Temples can be moved in all directions. Under a helmet, over a hat or on the head, the frames are held in place.
  • Grip Nose Pads have a soft, non-slip insert for comfort and grip on the nose.
  • Removable leather side shields protect the eyes of mountaineers and create an unmistakably vintage look.
  • Flexible temple ends for good grip around the ears.
  • Iconic metal frame tested and approved by generations of mountaineers.

Material: Polycarbonate.
Colour: Smoke/Multilayer Red.
VLT (visibility light transmission): 12%.
