The aviator glasses are one type of glasses with a clean, simple style having a sturdy, lightweight metal frame, designed to fit snugly against the face and offer a large transparent area of teardrop-shaped dark color lenses, providing complete eye coverage and optimum protection while flying.
Aviator glasses frames are designed with double or triple bridges above the nose, which increases the stability of the frame and enhances its durability. The metal frame used is still the typical aviator style today.

Aviator glasses were later made available to the public in the 40s and 50s, and throughout the 60s and 70s, their utility and stylish appeal became classic styles that are still worn today by men and women all over the world.
