About Porsche Design

Uncompromising, clear and functional lines meet timeless and sporty elegance in Porsche Design glasses, making you feel as if you were driving across the country in the Porsche 911 Cabrio and letting your hair blow in the wind. Away from the transient world of fashion, the brand designs glasses and sunglasses frames with flair, inspired by trends but not driven by them. This fact is also reflected in the choice of materials. Resistant and carefully crafted at the same time, the Porsche Design manufacturers accept nothing but the highest Porsche Design standards.

Porsche Design History

Behind the Porsche design brand is a truly turbulent history that began in 1972 as a direct reaction to the systematic booting out of all Porsche family members as decision-makers at the Swabian sports car and engine manufacturer. Founder Ferdinand Alexander Porsche, son of Ferry Porsche, grandson of Ferdinand Porsche and cousin of Ferdinand Piëch, initially set up the early structures in his native Baden-Württemberg before the label set off in 1974 to settle at the then brand-new company headquarters in Zell am See, Austria.

That's also where the company's rise to success began, as it began to make a name for itself with watches, suitcases, briefcases and its own sportswear collection, among other things. The first breakthrough on the eyewear market came as early as 1978 with the introduction of the Porsche Design sunglasses P8478, which had an ingenious interchangeable lens mechanism that caused a sensation around the globe and sent shockwaves through the sunglass industry. The drop-shaped lenses could be replaced with interchangeable lenses in no time at all using the Quick Release to suit different light conditions or to give the wearer a whole new look.

In the years that followed, the label established itself in competitive markets to such an extent that its success no longer went unnoticed, and Porsche Design was now playing in the concert of the greats. Nevertheless, against the background of this illustrious history, it is and remains a small miracle that F.A. Porsche AG sold shares in its previously independent designer label to a Porsche subsidiary in 2003. However, it is possible that the Porsche family's life's work was always aimed at bringing what is probably the most complicated chapter in the brand's history to a harmonious conclusion, in order to finally close the circle in the form of an economic connection.

Celebrities Turn to Porsche Design Eyewear

Whether on the red carpet, at the beach or while shopping: the stars have also long since discovered Porsche Design glasses for themselves. Blake Lively, for example, is just as loyal a fan as Usher and David Beckham when they manoeuvre through the flurry of flashbulbs. German celebrities are also enthusiastic. Comedian Hubertus Albers aka Atze Schröder rounds off his self-created alter-ego look with the Porsche Design glasses in pilot style.

Porsche Design Eyeglasses: An Ode to Minimalism

The focus of the minimalist Porsche Design eyewear models is clearly on the workmanship, the details and the material. That's why the Porsche Design eyewear designers only use the best of the best. Apart from titanium, high-quality metal and plastics of the highest quality, there are no other unexpected materials.

Another difference in quality compared to other competitor brands is the extraordinary focus on the surfaces, which, especially in the case of Porsche Design metal frames, are smoothed under great pressure several times in order to be satin-finished and polished to a high gloss.

The popularity of the products can also be seen in the countless attempts to sell imitations. But the Porsche Design sunglasses original produced by Rodenstock nevertheless differ so fundamentally in terms of materials and workmanship from any copies. To be on the safe side, however, make sure you receive your chosen model in a Porsche Design glasses case with original glasses cloth.

From Square to Round and Sometimes Irregular - Which Porsche Design glasses suit me?

Timeless silhouettes and balanced proportions are the brand's recipe for success, without giving into short-lived fashion trends. Rectangular, square and cat-eye styles stand out, especially for round faces, to balance out the face with a distinctive with the frame. Round, aviator and oval glasses are especially suited to those with more angular faces. When it comes to frame colors, Porsche Design has a wide range of options for men and women from light gold and silver to bright yellow and pink. Perfectly coordinated colors for lenses and frames meet striking shapes made of the highest-quality materials.
