American Optical: A Military Tradition in Sunglasses
:: American Tradition :: Classic Look :: Military Quality :: Great Pricing ::
AO is about as American as you can get when it comes to sunglasses. This company dates back to the 1800s as one of the first American Eyewear manufacturers on the market. Not only are they a pioneer in American eyewear but this particular brand is steeped in military tradition dating back to WWII. U.S. Naval aviators and generals turned these badboys into an American icon. They’ve been issued to millions of servicemen over the years and have now become available in the civilian market! And these classic goggles are the same used in Top Gun and various other military based movies as well!
Also on a personal note, I’ve worn and owned AO “Pilots” my entire life and I’ve loved them since day one. The classic look, the durability, and the “made in USA” engraved on the temple has had me coming back all these years. I’m so happy they’re available to the civilian market now!
Highly Recommend to anyone looking for a good pair of aviators!
