Formerly known as the FG-58, Original Pilot aviator sunglasses were first developed in 1958 for the needs of American military pilots. By 1969, they had been to the moon as part of the survival kits of all Apollo astronauts. Still made in the USA from premium global components, still engineered to rigid military specifications, these aviator sunglasses are built to last. Engineered for comfort, bayonet-style temples allow you to remove your glasses without taking off a helmet or other headgear.
