Sunglasses for your next adventure: finally, everything you need

We’ve all had that moment at a service station when you realise: you’ve left your sunglasses at home. We believe that reliable protection from glare belongs in your luggage just as much as your passport. That’s why our sunglasses are built to be just as robust and straightforward as our suitcases.

Finally on holiday and safe in the sun with the Urban Collection

When you’re on the move, you just want things to be straightforward so you can enjoy the sun. For over 75 years, travelite has been an integral part of travel culture, whether you’re packing your suitcases or discovering new places. The fact that we now also offer sunglasses is the next logical step for us. After all, a good pair of sunglasses is just as much a part of the trip as a suitcase you can rely on in any situation.

We’re with you every step of the way. It starts with packing at home, continues whilst you’re actually on the move – whether by car, train or plane – and lasts right through to your arrival at your destination. Throughout all these moments, your sunglasses are your constant companion. That’s why, with the Urban Collection, we’ve focused on what has defined travelite for decades: our products simply work, without being complicated.

A companion for every stage of your journey: why we’re expanding our range

At first glance, the combination of suitcases and sunglasses may seem unusual, but in practice they go hand in hand. Anyone planning a trip thinks about packing their clothes and, at the same time, about protecting their eyes as soon as they leave the house. Most people underestimate how often they reach for their sunglasses whilst on holiday. They’re just as essential when driving as they are when strolling through town or waiting at the gate.

We decided to include sunglasses in our range because we want to extend the trust our customers have placed in our suitcases, rucksacks and travel bags for decades to another essential travel accessory. We’re not interested in short-lived fashion trends, but in gear that delivers on its promises. Sunglasses from travelite offer you the perfect combination of high-quality filter technology and a fit you’ll barely notice. We use top-class lenses and ergonomic designs to ensure your eyes are optimally protected and the glasses don’t pinch, even after hours of wear. This makes travelling more relaxing, as you can focus on your experiences and rely on your gear.

The Urban Collection: functionality meets design

With the Urban Collection, we focus on full suitability for everyday use without compromise. Whilst many sunglasses quickly reach their limits in the hectic pace of everyday travel, our range offers a timeless design that works just as well in the city as it does on the beach. If you value a modern look and high-quality craftsmanship, you’ll find the perfect companion here. The models are designed to look great whilst also offering the durability you need when you’re on the move.

Clear vision instead of constant cleaning: our USP for travellers

Sun cream residue, fingerprints or salt spray by the sea are almost impossible to avoid whilst travelling and usually get in the way just when the view is at its best. If you spend ages polishing them, you’ll miss the moment. That’s why our lenses feature a special water- and oil-repellent coating. This ensures that dirt sticks much less easily and that the glasses can be cleaned in no time at all.

This offers clear advantages:

• Fewer smudges: Residue from sun cream or skin oils adheres much less readily to the surface.
• Water-repellent effect: Water droplets and splashes cannot adhere and simply roll off the lenses.
• Easy to clean: Fingerprints and oil stains can be removed with minimal effort and without the need for special accessories.
• Long-lasting clarity: With less cleaning required, your view remains unobstructed for longer and the lenses are protected.

A quick wipe is usually all it takes to restore a clear view. Instead of getting annoyed by stubborn greasy smears or residue, you can simply relax and enjoy the moment. This coating is our contribution to a stress-free journey, ensuring your sunglasses do exactly what they’re meant to: give you a clear and unobstructed view of your destination.

What to look out for when buying sunglasses for your holiday

When buying sunglasses for a holiday, the criteria are often different from those for everyday use at home. The strain on them is greater, they’re worn for longer periods and the light conditions are often more extreme. We have therefore developed our models according to clear standards:

• Certified UV400 protection: Eye safety is the foundation. Our models filter out 100 % of harmful UVA and UVB rays up to 400 nanometres, thereby complying with the strict EU standard EN ISO 12312-1.
• Superior comfort thanks to ergonomic design: Nothing is more annoying than a pair of sunglasses that start to pinch after two hours. Thanks to the use of high-quality materials and a well-thought-out fit, our models sit securely and comfortably without compromising on quality. They feel premium, yet remain comfortable even during long sightseeing tours.
• Versatility for every destination: Anyone who packs efficiently doesn’t want to carry a different pair of sunglasses for every situation. The timeless design works just as well in the city on a business trip as it does on the beach or whilst hiking.
• Robust travel quality: Our sunglasses are designed to be an integral part of your kit. They withstand the typical stresses and strains of everyday travel and offer outstanding quality at a fair price.

Your kit is now complete

Anyone who chooses travelite is opting for uncomplicated quality without any unnecessary fuss. With the Urban Collection, we bridge the gap between secure luggage and the essential protection for your eyes, so your travel outfit comes from a single source. The combination of technical sophistication – such as the special coating – and a timeless design makes these sunglasses the ideal companion for anyone looking to make a safe choice.

Our sunglasses are designed with the same high standards of craftsmanship and functionality as our suitcases. We apply our decades of experience in the travel sector to every detail of the collection, from UV protection to comfort. This means you’re perfectly equipped for any destination and can focus entirely on your adventure without having to worry about your delicate equipment.
