With the Super Bowl fever catching on like wildfire, ex alpine skier Lindsey Vonn is no exception to go gaga over her formidable favorite. While being the forefront of her brands deals like the behemoth Under Armour and whatnot, she makes sure there’s an amalgam of causes to get behind and keep that sporting ember alive too. Despite stepping away from the slopes, she still habitually attends sporting events and supports fellow athletes.
Now with the coveted event drawing to a close, Vonn unveiled her limited edition goggles emblazoned with the 49ers color while also having the duality of a rightful cause behind its launch. Alluding to the 49ers by likening her goggles brand’s color to the former’s de facto color, she recently caused quite a stir on her IG. Interestingly, Vonn posted a heartwarming message on Instagram that spoke volumes about her inclusivity, where she promoted not only her brand but also women’s empowerment. But there is a slight twist to this tale.

With skiing being her first love, Vonn is also equally committed to bolstering women’s empowerment and emancipation. Besides this, she also owns a foundation that helps underserved girls. To help these girls find their footing via the Lindsey Vonn Foundation, she is promoting the sales of her new edition of red Goggles intentionally to generate revenue.
Interestingly, Vonn chose red color for her newly launched goggles as she says, “They say red represents some of the most intense emotions, love, strength, passion… I’m super proud to launch my new limited-edition Red @yniqeyewear Goggles.” That’s not the only reason she chose red. There are the 49ers at play too here.
