The Original Pilot has been a favorite of U.S. military pilots since 1958. The rounded-square lens shape and bayonnette-style temple tips produce this signature look for the classic military aviator - and creates a fantastic look for men and women - sized for small faces with a lens width of 52mm, medium faces with a lens width of 55mm, and large faces with a lens width of 57mm. The shiny Silver frame has been the go-to color for this iconic military aviator for decades.  

For nearly two centuries, American Optical sunwear has been the choice of US presidents, the first on the moon, and has been immortalized in Hollywood history. Today, in their state-of-the-art American factory, AO produces this iconic style.
