Announced as AO's original full-season sunglasses
These are the originals from that time, equipped with khaki glass lenses from CALOBAR.
Unlike the lightweight, thin, disposable plastic clip-ons that many brands have attached to frames since the 1950s, which do not allow for interchangeable lenses,
AO positions Clip-On sunglasses as a high-level, high-quality product.
This is deadstock and comes with the original box and storage case.
