Victory Collection



The Victory Optical Collection revives a line of classic American eyewear designs that have been in the same family for four generations. In 1941, company founder Vincent J. Salierno debuted his first collection of Victory eyewear; the early designs launched the company's reputation for innovation, quality and a design sense that appealed to individuals such as Buddy Holly, Dean Martin, Connie Francis, Phil Silvers, Jerry Lewis and other figures in politics, entertainment and fashion.



Today, Salierno's grandson William Marfuggi has resurrected Victory's signature look in a line of retro-chic eyewear that is drawing a new clientele of fashion-forward individuals.

Masunaga

Masunaga is another one of our favorite lines at Cateye. They have been a model of optical excellence since 1905.

The company’s mission statement since the establishment is “We manufacture excellent eyeglasses. We want to make a profit if we can, but we don’t hesitate to take a loss. It is always in our thoughts to manufacture excellent eyeglasses.” These words are still the basis of the conduct code of employees even more than 100 years after its establishment.
