Frame Details

The Vuarnet 084 is one of the brand’s most recognizable vintage performance designs. Originally designed during the Roger Pouilloux era, the 084 became synonymous with French alpine culture, combining innovative engineering with unmistakable styling. Its signature convertible bridge allows the frame to transform between a traditional bridge and an open bridge configuration at the push of a button—an ingenious feature that remains unique today.

Finished in an uncommon gloss red, this New Old Stock example is an increasingly scarce survivor from Vuarnet’s golden era.

Why We Love Them | Era & Relevance

Vintage | Late 1970s–1980s

Few sunglasses capture the spirit of vintage French sport as completely as the Vuarnet 084. Designed during the Roger Pouilloux era, it reflects the innovation that made Vuarnet a favorite among world-class skiers, mountaineers, and adventurers. The patented convertible bridge, exceptional mineral glass optics, and unmistakable silhouette have made the 084 one of the brand’s most collectible vintage models.

Finding an unworn New Old Stock example with its original PX 2000 mineral glass lenses, factory stickers, and full kit has become increasingly uncommon, particularly in this less frequently seen red colorway.
