Bollé has agreed a sponsorship deal to become the official sunglass supplier to the GAC Pindar sailing team.
Skippered by Ian Williams, the reigning Match Racing World champion, the team will wear Bollé's specialist polarised Marine sunglasses, as they compete in the 2012 Extreme Sailing Series, which began in Oman on February 28. The team will also compete in the World Match Racing Tour 2012 series.
On the deal, Ian Williams said: 'We spend a vast amount of time on and around the water each year, in all varieties of weather from harsh, bright light in the tropics to flat light and rain. As professional sailors, it is vital to both protect our eyes for the long term, and to ensure that our eyewear enhances our race performance. Bollé are technically superior and having a dedicated marine range and a revolutionary prescription service, makes them a perfect partner for the GAC Pindar sailing team.'
