The Legacy of a Champion

Clijsters Shares Her Excitement about RIA Eyewear
In sharing her thoughts on this new partnership, Clijsters expressed, "I’m so excited to be joining RIA Eyewear. The RIA team’s commitment to creating top-quality, stylish eyewear aligns perfectly with my values as an athlete. I can’t wait to promote products that improve performance and protect players’ eyes from harmful UV rays, especially during those long hours spent on the court."
RIA Eyewear's Innovative Approach
The collaboration between Kim Clijsters and RIA Eyewear makes perfect sense, especially given RIA’s emphasis on providing innovative solutions tailored for athletes. The company has developed the proprietary Court HD+ lens technology in partnership with ZEISS™, a leader in the optical industry. This technology not only enhances visibility on the field but also offers complete protection from UVA/B rays. Unlike standard sunglasses, RIA’s lenses are non-polarized, preserving the natural depth perception that tennis players depend on to hit their shots effectively.
The Heart of RIA Eyewear
Founded with a mission to deliver high-performance eyewear for athletes, RIA Eyewear believes that athletes shouldn’t have to compromise on functionality or eye protection. Their handmade frames, crafted in Italy, are designed to withstand intense play, making them perfect for both high-pressure matches and casual games alike.
A Powerful Presence in the Sports Community
As RIA Eyewear expands its roster of ambassadors, Clijsters joins a distinguished group of tennis legends, including Jamie Murray and the Bryan Brothers, all of whom bring a wealth of experience to the brand. Chris Hanson and Jordan Kemp, the co-founders of RIA Eyewear, have noted that Clijsters is a fantastic match for their brand, as her passion for sports and dedication to improving athletic performance align seamlessly with RIA's goals.
Looking Towards the Future
With Kim Clijsters as part of the team, RIA Eyewear is ready to advance its mission of offering athletes top-quality eyewear that combines style and performance. As this partnership evolves, fans can anticipate seeing Clijsters championing products that not only look fantastic but also greatly enhance performance on the court.
