Founded in 1986, Vanguard is a top brand in both the photography and sport optics markets. While photographers around the world recognize Vanguard's tripods, heads, and camera cases, outdoorsmen swear by the razor sharp optics in Vanguard binoculars, monoculars, and spotting scopes.

Our pro staff at BinocularsPlus.com has been using Vanguard products for over a decade. Thanks to the brand's exacting quality control standards, we've recognized Vanguard with multiple Binocular of the Year Awards over the years. Vanguard tests every one of its binoculars, spotting scopes, and tripods. Vanguard sport optics like the bestselling Endeavor ED binoculars are submerged in 36" of water for 30 minutes to ensure waterproof and fogproof performance. Meanwhile, tripods are loaded up to verify their weight capacity. If something does go wrong with your Vanguard binocular, you can trust that it's backed by an extensive warranty.

Vanguard is one of the few woman-owned optics companies in the industry. Vanguard engineers design new, innovative products that are 100% produced in company-owned factories for an uncompromising commitment to quality.

With offices around the globe, Vanguard's US headquarters is located in Whitmore Lake, MI.
