RUBBER EVO expands with four new sun styles featuring anti-slip grip and CR-39 lenses. Perfect for active, urban lifestyles, this collection champions the athleisure trend, offering high-tech, lightweight frames made for movement. With SPORT, LOOK once again leads in merging sporty style with cutting-edge eyewear innovation. PATRICK DEMPSEY BECOMES THE FACE OF TAG HEUER EYEWEAR TAG Heuer is putting the pedal to the metal in 2025, announcing a fresh chapter in its long-standing relationship with actor and professional racer Patrick Dempsey. Having served as a brand ambassador since 2014, Dempsey is now officially the face of TAG Heuer Eyewear. Dempsey, whose racing team Dempsey Proton Racing is co-sponsored by TAG Heuer and Porsche, brings firsthand insight into the functionality and feel of the eyewear line. Developed in collaboration with luxury eyewear manufacturer Thélios, the collection places a premium on lightweight materials — particularly titanium — for maximum comfort and wearability, even under a racing helmet. ESSILORLUXOTTICA EXPANDS IN JAPANWITH NEW INVESTMENTS From acquiring a key Fukui eyewear plant to launching the Japan-made Nami brand and expanding retail through Washin, EssilorLuxottica reinforces its commitment to Japanese craftsmanship and optician partnerships. As Japan hosts Expo 2025 in Osaka, EssilorLuxottica marks 35 years of operations in the country with strategic moves that deepen its local footprint and product innovation. The company now fully owns the Fukui Megane factory — a leading titanium and acetate eyewear producer in Japan’s renowned eyewear hub — after a collaboration that began in 2010. The renovated plant blends traditional Japanese craftsmanship with innovation and now employs over 300 artisans. This has enabled a two-way exchange between Fukui and the group’s Italian facilities, bringing together heritage, technique, and forward-thinking design. SHARE YOUR VIEWS. EXCHANGE IDEAS.
