In 1979, Thierry Gros moves to the direction of Victor Gros and starts in 1985 the Traction Productions’s collection. The name “Traction” comes from a famous street of downtown Los Angeles “Traction Avenue” where the new upcoming young artists and movie producers get together. The inspiration of Traction combines Californian modernity and French refinement in the objective to create unique eyeframes. The ideas of the creation are the product of a permanent exchange between Los Angeles and Paris, from this, Victor Gros always anticipate the “avant-gardiste” tastes of his customers.
