Since 1956, Carrera has been synonymous with high-performance eyewear, born from the thrill of the Carrera Panamericana race. Founded by Wilhelm Anger, the brand initially focused on athletic eyewear, reflecting its origins in demanding sporting environments.
A pivotal moment arrived in 1964 with the invention of Optyl, a revolutionary material renowned for its lightness, flexibility, hypoallergenic properties, and exceptional durability. This innovation cemented Carrera's commitment to superior quality and comfort. Further collaborations, including a partnership with Ferdinand Porsche in 1979, resulted in groundbreaking foldable sunglasses and interchangeable lenses designed for professional athletes.
By the 1980s, Carrera had expanded its range to include prescription frames, establishing a global presence with boutiques in major cities worldwide. The brand consistently represented high quality, reliability, safety, and unparalleled functionality.
Today, Carrera frames and sunglasses seamlessly blend classic and sporty aesthetics, offering versatile options for every occasion. Men's styles emphasize boldness and individuality, while women's designs celebrate vibrancy and independence. Each pair ensures long-lasting comfort, effortless style, and unparalleled visual clarity.
Manufactured by Safilo, one of the world's top three optics producers, Carrera eyewear utilizes premium materials and cutting-edge technology. The Carrera 288 R80 (57-18) frames exemplify this commitment to excellence, offering a perfect blend of iconic design, exceptional quality, and enduring style. Experience the Carrera legacy today.
