I promise that I am not being disrespectful - I just heard a rumour and would like to know the answer - did the Pope ever market a line of sunglasses?

I think somebody is pulling your leg. The Pope does not have time for marketing plans.

Actually, he DID wear sunglasses for a photo shoot once, although it wasn't about marketing. The artist bono of U2 lent him his trademark wraparound shades one time, and the press ate it up.
