How do you protect your eyes from a hard hit pickleball or a shot off the edge of a paddle? Think those safety glasses from home depot or your fancy “sport” glasses will do it? Think again!

As a professional level racquetball player, where the ball travels at speeds of over 180 miles per hour, Rafael Filippini knows a thing or two about protecting your eyes. His dream was to create a brand that would lead with innovation and technology using advanced materials, and in 2007, he founded Gearbox.
