A rare safety metal frame
from American Optical.
We have installed 25% tint gray lenses
into this chrome silver aviator-style frame.
The light gray tint is subtle enough for indoor wear,
allowing your eyes to be faintly visible to others.
The Z87 design remains a modern standard,
offering superior functionality and an
immortal style that is perfect for biker shades.
Guaranteed to provide a retro, edgy aesthetic
and a timeless accent.
*A deadstock item stored unused for over half a century.
While the frame is marked 50/24, this model exists
with various nose pad configurations; since this pair
features size 22 nose pads, the fit corresponds to 50/22.
The nose pads show no discoloration,
making this a perfect piece for long-term use.
Original box included.
Enjoy the good old American craftsmanship
that cannot be replicated by today's technology.
