District Vision was founded in Los Angeles by Tom Daly and Max Vallot, two friends who discovered running not just as sport, but as a form of moving meditation. Launched in 2015, the brand emerged from their shared interest in mindfulness, performance, and design—aiming to create products that support both the physical and mental aspects of endurance.
At the heart of District Vision is a philosophy of finding inner peace by cultivation of outer strength. Every piece—from their high-performance eyewear to their apparel and accessories—is developed through a research-led approach that blends technical innovation with minimalist design. Their sport-specific lenses, anti-fog coatings, and adjustable nose systems have made District Vision sunglasses a favorite among elite athletes and conscious movers alike.
More than a product company, District Vision is a platform for mindful athleticism. They offer guided meditation courses, mental training programs, and collaborative workshops that explore the deeper dimensions of sport. This integration of wellness and movement sets them apart in a space often dominated by speed alone.
Rooted in Japanese engineering, Californian light, and global endurance culture, District Vision creates gear that supports both the body and the mind. Their mission isn’t just to help people move faster, but to help them move better—more present, more aware, and more connected.
