About Glacier
Glacier specializes in extreme environment eyewear engineered specifically for high-altitude mountaineering and polar expeditions where conventional sunglasses prove inadequate against intense UV exposure and challenging conditions. Founded by climbers with experience on the world's highest peaks, the brand focuses on maximum protection rather than fashion considerations.
The company's signature designs feature removable side shields, adjustable nose pieces, and shatterproof lenses with exceptional optical clarity at extreme altitudes. These specialized elements work together to prevent peripheral light exposure, snow blindness, and performance degradation in harsh mountain environments where vision protection becomes critically important for safety and success.
Beyond its core mountaineering focus, Glacier has expanded into technical eyewear for other extreme environments including glacier travel, high-altitude trekking, and polar expeditions. Each design undergoes extensive field testing in the environments for which it's intended, with feedback from professional guides and expedition leaders informing continuous refinement. This specialized approach has established Glacier as the preferred eyewear for serious mountaineers and professionals operating in the world's most challenging environments, where performance reliability directly impacts safety and success.
