L.G.R for Corviglia Ski Club

Dec 19 2011

Once again we are excited to announce a new Special Edition made exclusively for the prestigious Corviglia Ski Club in St. Moritz, Switzerland. This year we adapted our specialized and ultra-protective bi-mirrored lenses onto the models Tripoli and Victoria. Perfect for high altitude solar exposure, these lenses allow for a clear luminous vision rendering the snow a little bit warmer with its brown tint.

Frames are only available at the Corviglia Ski Club.

La Polverosa Special Edition

Nov 18 2011

L.G.R would like to introduce its Special Edition Shooting frames for La Polverosa.

Located in an angle of the Maremma region found in the heart of Tuscany, this unique place still remains untouched and thrives from its natural resources. The art of hunting is still practiced here with the spirit of another era.

With the help of experienced hunters, L.G.R has developed a frame made specifically for shooting activity which requires high impact resistance and  protection around the eyes without compromising one’s field of vision. The large frame  is made in a rounded shape to prevent any objects from flying into the eyes. The yellow photochromic and polycarbonate lenses help to sharpen vision and improve depth perception to easily distinguish your target.

The Ring of Fire

Jun 30 2011

We visited our laboratory yesterday to check out the new models for Silmo. Here’s an unusual angle of a stack of frontals during the handmade process. Depending on how the light hits this particular acetate, it illuminates the frame to give it an incredible glowing effect. What do you think?

RAW Limited Edition

Mar 21 2011


After keeping you in a long awaited suspense, we finally reveal to you with great enthusiasm our RAW Limited Edition collection!

A combination of a rough, unpolished frame with a sophisticated polarized lens, developed exclusively for L.G.R. This collection offers the latest techniques in mineral glass production, making for a unique eyewear experience.

There are 4 models, limited to 100 pieces each.

The special feature of this limited edition are the “L.G.R  Pola.Neophan” lenses which were specifically developed for us.

Neophan lenses were invented during WWII for fighter pilots, in order to increase the vision’s perception of color and the contrast of image (color enhancement).

These frames will hit stores the first week of May, so keep yourself updated with our website to find out where you can get a pair before they run out!
