THE VUE SHIELD

Designer Joe Doucet created Vue Shield to reflect the increasing importance of face shields as personal protection equipment. Face shields help protect from particles, spray and splashes in the workplace, shops or outdoors, but the standard shields on the market are uncomfortable and awkward.

To create a face shield that people would actually want to wear rather than simply put up with, Joe Doucet has designed a shield with integrated sunglass lenses and arms that make them more practical and feel less alien and intrusive on the wearer. The design is further enhanced with features including all-over UVA, UVB and blue light protection for everyday practicality.

With stylish options for both men and women, as well as a unisex clear version, Vue Shield will encourage far greater uptake of face shields and help everyone adjust to the "new normal" that awaits us.
