【American Optical】for engineers.

You can enjoy the atmosphere of that time
AO's signature basic style
is highly versatile, from casual to formal.
Rare black fade color
*Unlike many of this model,
there is no thinning of the acetate due to age,
and it is deadstock in excellent condition.
At the lab in Burbank, the center of the film industry,
we had gray fade lenses (40%) fitted to this frame
and finished it.
The tint is such that the wearer's eyes are faintly visible.
You can wear it from the day it arrives.
The authentic vintage frame, which you can feel in your hands,
establishes a real texture and appeal that cannot be satisfied by the many copies and replicas on the market.
