ICONS
With their timeless design, these models are a perfect combination of authenticity and skillful craftsmanship.

CARRERA 84/S – Special Edition
These pilot-shaped unisex acetate sunglasses are a new edition of an iconic model that comes straight from the brand’s archives. The frame owes its worldwide fame to “Downhill Racer”, a 1969 movie starring a young Robert Redford wearing these celebrated sunglasses.
The tri-layer acetate frame comes in color combos that reflect the brand’s passion for the world of sports: black-white-gray, blue-ivory-red and havana.

CARRERA 85/S
This unisex model features an interplay of materials between the Optyl front and the ultra-slim metal temples, as well as fine, sophisticated details that are part of the brand’s stylistic heritage.
With their aviator shape, the double bridge with a metal insert on the upper front profile and the engraved Carrera logo, these sunglasses are a contemporary take on the brand’s original “Captain” sunglasses, a model that made history. They are available in a classic color palette of black-ruthenium, Havana-gold, opal-black and gray-black.
