Limits? Only in the minds of others.

For Lionel Spitz, this sentence is more than just a saying—it's a statement. The top Swiss sprinter is one of the fastest 400-meter runners in Europe. His goal: the 44-second mark. What does that require? Concentration, discipline—and tools that accompany him every step of the way. Even off the track.

Whether during training, competition, or everyday life between appointments, travel, and university – gloryfy glasses are Lionel's daily companion. Not because he has to, but because they simply work. With prescription lenses – whether sports, lifestyle, or prescription frames.

Lionel Spitz

Born in 1999 and raised in the canton of Zurich, Lionel is part of a new generation of athletes who see performance not as pressure, but as motivation. The 400m is his discipline—a distance between sprinting and endurance, between control and absolute endurance testing. Lionel trains hard, studies simultaneously, and travels regularly—always on the move between the stadium, university life, and recovery. A lifestyle that demands flexibility—even when it comes to glasses.

Two pairs of glasses, one claim: Clarity

What Lionel needs is clarity – on and off the track. That's why he wears gloryfy – in two versions, perfectly tailored to his everyday life:

🕶️ Sunglasses with optical lenses – for perfect vision during training, even in changing light conditions
👓 Prescription frame with direct glazing – robust, lightweight and stylish

“I need glasses that remain stable under heavy load – but are also comfortable enough to wear all day,” says Lionel.

Unbreakable glasses – made for movement

All gloryfy glasses are based on the principle of unbreakable, lightweight, and adjustable. The frames are made of a patented special material that absorbs shock and retains its shape—ideal for both athletic and everyday wear. And best of all, many models—both sporty and urban—are available with prescription lenses. They're directly glazed, without clip-ins or adapters.

Direct glazing at gloryfy – no compromises

• 100% optical comfort – without additional inserts
• Less weight, no fogging problems
• Modern, sporty design – also with prescription lenses
• Individually adjustable at a well-stocked optician near you

This is a real game changer, especially for people like Lionel who don't have time for compromises.
