Sunglasses for your next adventure: Finally, everything you need

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

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

When you’re on the go, you just want things to be simple and to enjoy the sun. For over 75 years, travelite has been an integral part of travel culture, whether you’re packing your bags or discovering new places. The fact that we now also 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 in a car, train or plane, and lasts right through to your arrival at your destination. In all these moments, your sunglasses are your constant companion. That’s why, with the Urban Collection, we’ve focused on what’s made travelite special for decades: our products simply work, without being complicated.

A companion for every stage: Why we are 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, protecting their eyes as soon as they leave the house. Most people underestimate how often they reach for their sunglasses whilst on holiday. They are just as essential when driving as they are when strolling through town or waiting at the gate.

We decided to add sunglasses to our product range because we want to extend the trust our customers have placed in our suitcases, rucksacks and travel bags over decades to another essential travel accessory. We’re not interested in short-lived fashion trends, but in equipment that delivers on its promises. travelite sunglasses deliver the perfect combination of high-quality filter technology and a barely-there fit. We use premium lenses and ergonomic designs to ensure your eyes are optimally protected and the glasses don’t pinch, even after hours of wear. This makes traveling more relaxed, 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 glasses 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. Anyone who values a modern look and high-quality craftsmanship will find the perfect companion here. The models are designed to look great whilst offering the durability you need when on the move.

A clear view instead of the need to clean: our USP for travellers

Residue from sun cream, fingerprints or salt spray at the seaside are almost impossible to avoid when out and about, and they usually get in the way just when the view is at its best. If you have to spend ages polishing, you’ll miss the moment. That’s why our lenses are equipped with a special water- and oil-repellent coating. This ensures that dirt sticks much less easily and that the glasses can be cleaned in a jiffy.

This offers clear advantages:

• Fewer streaks: Residues of sun cream or skin oils adhere much less effectively to the surface.
• Beading effect: Water droplets and splashes cannot adhere and simply roll off the glass.
• Easy to clean: Fingerprints and oil stains can be removed with little effort and without the need for special accessories.
• Long-lasting clarity: Thanks to the reduced cleaning effort, the view remains unobstructed for longer and the glass is protected.

A quick wipe is usually all it takes to restore a clear view. Instead of getting frustrated with stubborn grease films 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, different criteria often apply than for everyday use at home. The strain on the eyes is greater, they are 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 paramount. Our models filter out 100% of harmful UVA and UVB rays up to 400 nanometres and therefore comply with the strict EU standard EN ISO 12312-1.
• High comfort thanks to ergonomic design: Nothing is more annoying than glasses that start to pinch after two hours. Thanks to the use of high-quality materials and a well-designed 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 separate pair of glasses for every situation. The timeless design works just as well in the city on a business trip as it does on the beach or when hiking.
• Robust travel quality: Our sunglasses are designed to be an essential part of your kit. They withstand the typical stresses of everyday travel and offer excellent quality at a fair price.

Your equipment is now complete

Anyone travelite chooses this, opts for uncomplicated quality without unnecessary detours. With the Urban Collection, we bridge the gap between secure luggage and the necessary 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 glasses the ideal companion for anyone who wants to make a safe choice.
