BEAR GRYLLS PARTNERS WITH REVO TO DEVELOP PERFORMANCE SUNGLASS COLLECTION

World-renowned adventurer and best-selling author, Bear Grylls has partnered with Revo, a top global performance sunglass brand, to develop a line of co-branded sunglasses that cater to an active lifestyle.

Building on the tremendous brand loyalty behind adventurer and global television personality Bear Grylls, the collection will leverage Bear’s vision to ‘Inspire, Equip and Empower’. The sunglasses are made of an innovative flexible plastic material that is almost unbreakable.  The collection features signature Revo lenses, ideal for Bear and his fans’ outdoor adventure lifestyle.  The Revo lens offers the best visual experience available for those who live an active, outdoor lifestyle.

The line of sunglasses is due to pre-launch in Fall 2018 with a full launch in Spring 2019 at www.BearGrylls.com, www.Revo.com, outdoor retailers, optical stores and travel retailers.  The collection will have an MSRP of $149.

Revo was founded in 1985 by NASA optical engineer Mitch Ruda. Revo was the first sunglasses brand to feature NASA technology in its lenses, an advanced coating that offers a superior view in any condition and effectively protects the eyes from harmful radiation.

Bear Grylls says, “Revo are quite simply best in class and have put so much time and research into their lenses, as well as building the ‘almost unbreakable’ tag line. It would have been ‘totally unbreakable’ but I had one pair crushed to bits in a rockfall where a two-ton boulder landed on top of them! So ‘almost unbreakable’ it is!”

Cliff Robinson, President of Revo stated: “I am so honored to be a part of this new partnership.  Aside from being a long-time fan of Bear’s, I couldn’t be happier that Revo lenses are his first choice for his rugged outdoor lifestyle.  If they are good enough for Bear, they are good enough for all of us “regular people” too!”
