Aviator Sunglasses

The aviator’s origins started in the early 1930’s with a very practical solution to a problem. When pilots began to ascend to ever-higher heights in the early 20th century, they ran into a new issue. These altitudes brought with them headaches and sickness: as well as an inability to see without thick, fur-lined goggles. So, the story goes, one American pilot – John Macready – saw a friend’s eyes swollen and frozen when, for a second, at the height of 33,000 feet, he removed his misted-up goggles. The experience shocked him.That when Macready decided that protecting pilots’ eyesight from the glaring sun was top of his agenda.The Aviator was born.
