“We designed the frames with reference to our own personal use. For me, I found I had sunglasses for so many different occasions – sports, everyday and events. It was special to create styles that could be universally worn for any moment,” he said.

During the same interview, Roger Federer also opened up about his love for sunglasses, disclosing that they were an essential part of his wardrobe since his tennis career required him to spend “80% of his life” in the sun.

“I am a big fan of sunglasses,” he said. Sunglasses are something I’ve enjoyed as my sport has required me to chase the sun 80% of my life. Even after my professional career, I continue to travel and be outdoors, so I often have a pair with me.”

The 20-time Grand Slam champion revealed that it was a “full-circle moment” for him to partner with Oliver Peoples, having admired the brand since purchasing his first pair from them over two decades ago.

“I have been a fan of Oliver Peoples since I bought my first pair over 20 years ago. They felt like such a clear partner to create the type of sunglasses we felt were missing in the market, a high-performance style that is at the same time elegant and luxurious. I feel this is a very special full-circle moment,” he added.

Federer recently sported a pair of sleek black sunglasses from his collection at the 2024 Laver Cup, where he cheered for the Carlos Alcaraz-led Team Europe as they defeated Team World to end their two-year losing streak at the event.
