These are "US Army Official" frames, issued to the
military in the 1970s based on the strict
US government Mil-Spec (Military Specification).

Mil-Spec refers to rigorous, military-level standards.
Products that pass these tests are characterized by their
robustness, functionality, and reliability, serving as a benchmark
for quality that consumers can trust.

The durability required to withstand harsh combat zones
and the stripped-back, minimalist horn-rim design
are loved in modern fashion as an "eternal standard."

At the time, this model was produced by mainstream American
brands such as AO and Bausch & Lomb under strict
government specifications as official US Army issue.
This background explains why many units feature
different brand names on the front and temples.
This particular piece is a rare example where both
the front and temples are made by USS.

*
We have installed light gray (20%) lenses that pair perfectly
with these frames, crafted at a Burbank lab that produces
many lenses for film and television. The density allows your
eyes to be clearly visible, making them suitable for indoor wear.
They are ready to wear immediately upon arrival.
The frame is in excellent condition with no degradation or celluloid shrinkage.

A genuine vintage frame that you can feel in your hands—it possesses
a level of authenticity and charm that the many copies and
replicas currently on the market simply cannot satisfy.
