Christina Kim's new eyewear

2 yearss ago

Christina Kim hit the links in 2010 with a new style. The most unique piece to her ensemble is a dueling pair of sunglasses by PILLA High Performance Eyewear. The reason for two pairs of sunglasses is to use one pair from tee to green and the second pair in the putting area.

Christina's unique set was designed specifically by Philip Pilla, founder of PILLA Higher Performance Eyewear. The glasses are adorned with her name and initials and the vibrant lime green matches her personality.

"When we designed her glasses one of the most important features was to get them to fit properly," said Pilla. "As a professional golfer, whether it be her clubs or glasses-proper fitting is very important. The glasses were designed to be ergonomically correct for Christina. The green frames came about due to Christina's passion for the environment and for her cause to help the prevention of Lyme disease. The green represents the environment for Christina as well as a talking point for her. Many people ask her about the green frames and that gives her a great way for her to talk about the environment and Lyme disease."

PILLA High Performance Golf Eyewear features a unique two frame system to manage light --one frame for tee to green and one frame for the putting surface.
