American Optical Skymaster Sport Gold
American Optical Skymaster Sport Gold
Fly high in these Top Gun style original 80s pilot aviator sunglasses frames by AO American Optical model Skymaster Sport. This new old stock frame is made in France in a striking combo of gold metal with double bridge and stylised tortoiseshell acetate brow bar and tips. Perfect to remake as sunnies or opticals, just add lenses.
In the late 1930s American Optical was challenged by the Army Air Corps to produce a new sunglass, one that would provide comfort, quality optics and protect pilots from blinding glare. In the 1970s Skymaster sunglasses went on to produce sunglasses that Nasa took to the moon - these frames have a whole lot of history.
Bespoke this authentic vintage frame! Go for glasses or sunglasses - choose from a range of tints + add your prescription.
Comes with new case and cleaning cloth made from recycled PET plastic bottles.
