The story behind the frame

Pit Viper built its brand on bold, oversized shield sunglasses inspired by the loud sports eyewear of the 1980s and 1990s. The Originals is the brand's signature frame.

Its large lens provides a wide field of view and plenty of coverage, making it popular for skiing, cycling, and festivals. Read more about the shape in our history of sunglasses.
