These iconic frames have been connected intimately with American history since the company’s founding. By WWI, American Optical created goggles for American pilots, and by WWII, the company produced all eyewear for the military. In a century long timeline, the company produced eyewear for pilots, Presidents and NASA space crews. We offer the original Pilot, worn by Apollo 11 crew on the mission to the moon. We also offer the lightweight Saratoga, always the choice of JFK, with its sturdy sevenbarrel hinges, and AOlite non-polarized Calobar green lenses for long-wearing comfort.
