Today’s sports glasses are great for rather extreme sports like biking, skiing and running often in tough weather conditions. They protect against wind, rain, blinding sun in the snow but also insects and dirt. But what about those people who perform casual sports such as gym, jogging, and yoga?

One of the main qualities of life in Icelandic society is the earth’s heat that has been harnessed and fed into the homes of the citizens.
