Why we made Whistler Eyeglasses.
Inspired by the snow-capped peaks of Whistler, Canada, these high-performance frames combine a classic rectangular design with cutting-edge technology. Light on your face yet full of features, the Whistler frames offer an exceptional fit and feel. With our proprietary GEKO™ No-Slip nose pads and molded grip texture around the temples, they stay securely in place no matter the activity. Whether you're enjoying a quiet moment with a book by the fire or gearing up for your next adventure, the Whistler frames provide the perfect blend of style and performance.
CORE TECHNOLOGY
FLOATFIT™ FRAMES
We obsess over every detail across design, engineering, and materials science to ensure your frames can keep up with anything you throw at them. The result is a frame that is extremely durable, lightweight, comfortable, and will stay on your face. We call this Float Fit, and we invite you to feel the difference.
NO-SLIP GEKO™ PADS
Proprietary formulation enhances fit and retention, relieves pressure points, and gets stickier when wet.
