An "US Army Official" frame issued to the
Army in the 1970s, based on strict
US government military specifications (Mil-Spec).

Mil-Spec refers to rigorous, military-grade standards.
Products that pass these tests are superior in durability,
functionality, and reliability, serving as a benchmark
of quality that consumers can trust.

With a durability designed to withstand harsh battlefields
and missions, the streamlined, no-frills horn-rimmed
design is loved today as an "eternal standard"
in modern fashion.

At the time, this exact model was produced by major
American brands such as AO and Bausch & Lomb,
manufactured under strict US government specifications
as US Army issue models. This background is why
many units are found where the brand names on the
front and temples do not necessarily match.
This piece is a rare example where both the front
and temples are manufactured by USS.

*
The frame is in excellent condition with no signs
of deterioration or cellulose shrinkage.
