A RENAULD ICON
James Dean is remembered as a 50s icon. His talent as an actor and his skill as a motorcar and motorbike enthusiast was tragically lost when his life was cut short. Dean’s unforgettable films include Giant and Rebel Without a Cause which will remain forever among cinema’s all time greats. Throughout his short life, James was known for wearing a distinctive pair of glasses and, in homage to the star, we have forged a friendship and worked closely with the James Dean Estate to faithfully reimagine his exact model.

INTRODUCING
JAMES DEAN BY RENAULD
This limited edition sunglasses collection comprises of two styles: The James Dean 1955 and The James Dean and remains inextricably linked to Dean through its design and emotional equity.
THE James Dean
The distinctive glasses in tortoiseshell and piano black acetate feature clip-on sunglasses and will be available in five different colours including Deep Blue, Light Blue and Olive Green. James Dean® by Renauld is crafted carefully by hand to exacting standards in the Renauld Studio in Italy and come with the option of prescription lenses.
The James Dean® 1955 by Renauld
The James Dean® 1955 by Renauld features an actual part of Dean’s iconic racing pit one piece encased in the Renauld Marque and embedded in the frame of the sunglasses. This piece of fabric was cut by Dean’s cousin, Marcus Winslow, on the Indiana farm where they grew up. This is an item from the family’s private collection, never before shared with the public.
THE RENAULD MARQUE
Using the Renauld Marque as inspiration, we have pioneered a method of incorporating a keepsake into the aerodynamic shape of the lens temple. Crafting a micro-thin, vacuum-sealed keepsake compartment, the transparent Renauld Keepsake Marque houses a piece of authenticated memorabilia.
