Tom Ford Eyewear’s new ski collection embodies a bold and adventurous spirit. Combining high style with advanced technology and athletic power, it perfectly encapsulates the combination of luxury and confidence at the heart of the Tom Ford brand. It stands out for its innovative, contemporary design and iconic signature elements meticulously crafted from cutting-edge materials. The FT1124 ski goggles are the epitome of functionality with a touch of modern glamor. Its interchangeable mirrored and photochromic bronze lenses are secured by a wide, adjustable elastic band with a bold, large Tom Ford logo and exclusive packaging that emphasizes its exclusivity. A transformation of the classic pilot style, Rellen and Linden sunglasses feature bold shapes with striking metal details. Equipped with photochromic lenses that adapt to changing light conditions, these styles offer variations in their appearance: Linden features a modified butterfly silhouette, while Rellen offers a soft checkered shape. Both elevate the skiing style.

The name of the brand comes from a photograph captured by Francesco Ragazzi. The image of a long-haired skier among palm trees inspired Ragazzi. He likened the skier to an angel and, inspired by the palm trees, Ragazzi named his brand Palm Angels, which means palm angels. Palm Angels’ sunglasses are a bold and unique fashion statement. Based on the Italian approach to American culture and subcultures, Palm Angels sunglasses stand out with geometric shapes, color and pattern combinations. Playful and bold, the Palm Angels sunglasses range often uses bright hues and different shapes, but also includes classic black, white and tortoiseshell. Sonoma from the Fall/Winter 2023 collection is embellished with intricate milling details along the entire frame, enhancing their lightweight construction, while the extra-large pilot shape with a flat front and smooth edges really makes this design stand out. The sturdy handles are accented with the Palm Angels logo engraved on a raised metal plate, adding extra elegance.
