Sun Pocket Original –Avalanching Its way onto Catwalks, High Streets & Hipsters Pockets

Sun Pocket first unfolded in France in the late 1970’s, originally made for the sunny ski slopes and the warm Mediterranean Sun Pocket soon avalanched its way into the fashion scene, being worn by the rich, famous and fashionable of any ice capped mountain range.

Moving out of the 70’s into the 80’s Sun Pocket retained the joyful explosion of colours and a style that saw them the eye wear of choice for hotdog skiers and 80’s hipsters.

20 years on and Sun Pocket find themselves being brought back to life globally being stocked in over 18 countries after now-brand owner, Jacob Höglund, found a pair of the foldable sunglasses by accident in his families ski cottage in Trysil, Norway 2009.
