We could not be more proud to announce that Lara Gut and Tom Wallisch joined Shred Optics and Slytech family wearing Shred goggles, helmets, and all of our Slytech 2nd SKiN XT™ protection. It is progressive and passionate athletes such as Lara who shape the future of the sport and the athletes of tomorrow. Lara is a perennial competitor whom always challenges the grey area of possibility day in and day out. Her commitment to her craft and her passion for fiercely individualizing her interpretation of personal style on and off the mountain is what perpetually drives her past yesterday’s norms.

On becoming a member of the team, Lara shared, "I'm really happy to join the Shred Optics and Slytech Protection family! Having Ted Ligety involved since the beginning means that the products have been developed by athletes and there's no better way to have good gear than working with people that use it, too. I like to wear nice helmets and it doesn't have to look too serious and rigid, Shred has exactly the kind of product I like. The most important thing when I'm skiing is to feel safe and with Shred Optics and Slytech Protection this is a reality! I can reach my goals, test my limits and at the same time the gear I'm wearing protects me but never restricts my movements. I love it!"

Tom Wallisch is Park City local and worldwide legend. All of us at the SHRED OPTICS family share the same passion for the mountains that Tom does, and we are ecstatic to support him in his pursuit of skiing perfection, as well as to provide an avenue to foster his creative growth as a product designer and brand influencer. 

Upon signing with SHRED OPTICS, Wallisch shared, “I want to work on and design awesome products with a company that is excited about me as an athlete and person. I’ve got a lot of plans left for my ski career and I’m excited to have a company like SHRED OPTICS there to support me and all my future endeavors. For me what separated SHRED from other brands was the athlete involvement in the company. I was able to see firsthand the amount of input Ted and other athletes had in everything from design to color choices. Having gear that incorporates great technology and also looks good is all any skier wants.”
