Marcolin rides into the future with Harley-Davidson

Marcolin and Harley-Davidson have renewed their licensing agreement for the design, manufacturing and worldwide distribution of branded eyewear for the motor company.

The partnership started in 2013 after Marcolin acquired Viva International and was extended by six years, until December 2027.

As part of the new deal, the companies will enter the performance and protective sunglasses market that were designed for on-the-bike use. Sunglasses will include foam linings and removable gaskets, and will meet other applicable safety standards, such as high-velocity and high-mass impact.

Harley-Davidson eyewear by Marcolin will also feature subtle branding, motorcycle-inspired detailing and designs influenced by the motor company.
