Carrera glasses: the history of a global fashion icon

In 1956, Wilhelm Anger decided that his sports eyewear brand would be named after the fastest and most dangerous motor race in the world: the Carrera Panamericana. That was Anger’s destiny and vision for the future. In the 1980s, Carrera glasses became a true pop icon thanks to the television series ‘Miami Vice’.

Optyl was patented, a plastic that weighs less than other materials and is more resistant. It was in the 1970s that Carrera began producing ski helmets and goggles. Later, it launched a revolutionary line of sunglasses, the Carrera Porsche collection. In collaboration with car designer Ferdinand Alexander Porsche, this culminated in foldable glasses and interchangeable lenses.

Carrera introduced prescription eyewear frames following the success of its sunglasses collections. It also worked with Jimmy Choo on the launch of an exclusive Carrera by Jimmy Choo capsule collection for women and men.

The evolution of Carrera designs goes from a basic aviator style in its sunglasses to new men’s glasses with a teardrop shape and minimalist details that set them apart from other brands. Throughout its history, Carrera has stood out with numerous models and collections. It has turned its glasses into a fashion icon with more than 600 different models.
