VALLON MALIZIA SUNGLASSES
The summer sun is shining bright in the Pacific Northwest and quality sunglasses are a must when spending time on the water. Founded in Verbier, Switzerland, VALLON is a performance eyewear company dedicated to producing best-in-class sports sunglasses for a variety of outdoor activities. Designed in-house by the VALLON team, the Malizia have a base-8 wraparound curve frame made from 85% recycled fishing nets. This leading sustainable material is an ultra-durable nylon 6, providing the right balance of strength and flexibility for all-day comfort. Working with ocean racer Boris Herrmann, and Team Malizia, selecting a material that balanced sustainability with the capacity to withstand the world’s harshest sailing conditions was essential—along with excellent optics. The Malizia glasses are built with VALLON’s polarized V52® lens technology, which offers the highest optical clarity for nylon sports performance lenses on the market. The sunglasses are delivered in plastic-free packaging, including a red sports retainer and clip-on cushioned protective case—perfect for rough days at sea.
