Lindsey Vonn partners with YNIQ

Lindsey Vonn is notably one of the greatest alpine skiers of all time. The athlete is a pro when it comes to surprising fans in her ways. She did it again with a partnership announcement. She is now one of the shareholders of a Sweden-based international sports luxury boutique brand. 

The athlete announced her partnership with YNIQ in December 2019 after retiring from skiing. Since skiing has been running in her veins for years, her decision to pair up with the sports eyewear company was reasonable. 

“Fashion and function have always been important to me on and off of the slopes. I’m excited to join YNIQ’s creative and forward-thinking team as a stakeholder in their unparalleled ski accessory,” said the three-time Olympic gold medalist. “Their passion for quality, innovation and style naturally aligned with my vision of what luxury high-performance eyewear should be.”
