Independent Swedish Sports Eyewear Brand, Spektrum, Launches New Sustainable Ski Goggles
Swedish sports eyewear brand, Spektrum, is thrilled to announce the launch of its all-new stylish and sustainable ski googles, Östra. Made using 64% biomaterials, Spektrum’s top-of-the-range goggles are designed to be comfortable, sleek and enhance wearers’ vision when hitting the slopes.
A leader in sustainable sports eyewear, Spektrum produces eyewear with performance and the environment in mind by using the best alternatives to harmful plastics and polymers. It’s comes as no surprise that the brand won gold for “Best Eyewear” at the ISPO Awards in Munich, the world’s biggest sports fair earlier this year.
Born and designed in Sweden, Spektrum is a sustainable performance eyewear brand passionate about providing a cleaner, greener way to enjoy the outdoors. Spektrum’s founders’ background as professional athletes, and deep roots in the mountain town of Åre, lays a groundwork that has led to the uncompromising quality and clean, functional design of each product they create. Together, each product is tested to the limit to ensure every final detail is just right.
Whilst Sweden’s heritage for great design and product innovation feeds the brand’s foundation, a love for the outdoors and a determination to have as little impact on the environment as possible is really at the heart of Spektrum’s mission. Using plant-based materials across both its performance eyewear and goggles, which are remarkably light, durable and flexible and also deliver second-to-one performance, Spektrum strives to do what it can to help minimise our impact on the environment to sustain the future of our planet for generations to come.
Furthering the brand’s dedication to sustainability, Spektrum has partnered with two organisations that are committed to changing our attitudes towards the environment – One Percent for the Planet and Protect Our Winters.
Thriving for excellence from every angle, Spektrum’s Östra ski goggles have been designed by sportswear experts to protect and support while looking stylish on the slopes. The goggles use impact-resistant, anti-shatter lens technology with unmatched clarity and have been produced using the highest quality material, ensuring eyes are guarded no matter the level of impact to the face.
Thanks to Spektrum’s magnetic lens exchange system, an unsurpassed field of vision is offered. Snow sports enthusiasts can hit the steepest of slopes and land rotating jumps with full visual clarity of their surroundings. The Östra employs pivoted outriggers on the frame’s side, allowing the pressure on riders’ faces to be adjusted for the perfect ergonomic fit, both with a helmet and without. An innovative air flow lens system also makes for a fog free wear.
Finally, the Östra’s lenses have been glazed with an anti-scratch coating and a multi-layer mirror finish while offering 100% UV protection.
