"We wanted a site that emulated not only the R A E N culture, but one that paralleled the aesthetic of the team behind the brand," says Creative Director, Justin Heit. "We are a like-minded bunch full of ideas that I believe were successfully translated into the look, feel and overall user experience."

THE COMMUNITY

An important element to R A E N lies in the individuals that create their culture. As so, this community of photographers, ambassadors and fine artists live within the website so visitors can see "Through The Eyes Of" the eclectic lives that drive inspiration behind the brand's authentic product and timeless style.

THE PRODUCT

With the launch of the new website also comes the release of new styles. R A E N welcomes The Myopia, a chic warrior goggle created in collaboration with designer and artist Alexandra Cassiniti, and Premium R A E N, a limited edition collection featuring six of R A E N's most sought after styles. Finished in a matte coating with the ultimate polarized protection (excluding The Regan), this collection represents the brand at its finest. These design driven frames join the R A E N family with each cut, screw and flourish engineered to optic perfection. Outfitted with the highest quality CR-39 lenses from Optics by Carl Zeis and made with durable, Italian Mazzucchelli 1849 Zyl-Acetate, the trio along with all R A E N optics boasts optimum visual comfort with never fading, eye protecting precision.
