American-made sunglasses faithfully modeled after Air Force pilot shades
From the pulpits of WWI American fighter pilots to the film sets of Top Gun and Taxi Driver, pilot aviators have more than solidified their spot in classic American culture. In honor of the high-spec military style that inspired the most famous eyewear silhouette out there, American Optical borrowed details from Bausch & Lomb’s original 1958 flight goggles to build an authentic pair of aviators engineered to stand the test of time.
