About
In addition to producing high-performance sports cars and supercars, the legendary automotive company McLaren is also a creator of luxury and innovative sports clothing and accessories. The McLaren Eyewear Collection includes 3 different ranges of products, all sharing the same vision of refined performance inspired by McLaren lifestyle. The DRIVESTYLE Series offers bold bi-color acetate sunglasses and optical frames that feature a specific groove design reminiscent of the furrow of a track and the colorful temple tips characteristic of the collection. The frames are structured by a bi-color acetate in order to bring the iconic McLaren papaya color on the inside, while keeping an elegant black on the outside. The signature colorful tips are reproduced in acetate, with a crystal lamination that separates the temple from the tip design area.
The ULTIMATE Series is the pinnacle of the McLaren Vision collection. Ultra-lightweight frames have the unique structure of the front, which is obtained by 3D printing with titanium powder. The exclusive titanium lug produced by MIM (Metal Injection Molding) allows 180° rotational movement for compact folding when the glasses are folded, and a constant pressure on the face when open. The temples are in thermoplastic elastomer over molded on a metal wire core offering unbeatable comfort. The MAGNETIC MG-86 capsule collection offers modern and ultra-stylish frames for an urban lifestyle. The revolutionary design features 3D printed fronts, 100% recycled stainless steel temples, and the patented magnetic hinge that is composed of 2 Neodym pieces to ensure life-lasting friction, with no risk of losing screws and temples.

UNIQUE MCLAREN SUNGLASSES
To ensure exceptional clarity of vision, the McLaren sunglasses are paired with the Leica Eyecare sun lenses, which are treated with AquaDura Vision anti-reflective, oleophobic and hydrophobic coatings. The collection offers five sun lens types customized for a specific environment; the Driving lenses, for example, feature very precise graduated tinting that is designed to improve contrasts and show the road ahead in sharp relief. There is no polarization so all surfaces are perceived perfectly. Another type of gradient lens that guarantees an excellent color reproduction as well as improved contrasts and relief is the McLaren Escape lens. So, if you plan outside escaping, sporty or not, these lenses are just the perfect choice!
If you prefer polarized sunglasses, choose from the Outdoor and Yachting lens by McLaren. Both types are designed to reduce light intensity for a maximum visual comfort. Featuring an unbeatable color reproduction and avoiding any distortion of the vision, the Outdoor and Yachting lenses are ideal for every outdoor activity, from cycling to sailing. The Urban lenses by McLaren have a gray glass with a red flash with a unique neutral gradient tint designed for all lighting conditions and easy reading of screens, which makes them perfect for a multi usage in everyday life.
