A masterpiece of goggles released by
[American Optical] as motorcycle sunglasses.
With original AO Calobar (khaki) glass lenses,
leather side shields, and cable temples that
provide a perfect fit to ensure they don't fall off
under impact, this OG classic style guarantees
a unique visual and styling statement.
The rarely seen cable temples feature a
unique curved shape that gently wraps around the back of the ears,
making them highly resistant to slipping even during intense movement.
Because they are comfortable for long periods of wear
and maintain a stable fit, they are highly favored by
musicians who move around on stage and those who perform
physical work. It is a reliable temple design that
balances comfort and functionality.
