AO Eyewear American Optical Checkmate Sunglasses

As the originator of the aviator style, you can imagine the AO archives are full of variations on the classic.

The Checkmate revives one such style, tweaking the design for today's trends with a slimmer bridge and tapered temple.

This shallower, rectangular aviator shape fills a goldilocks space in the AO collection between the Original Pilot and the General.

If you're looking for an aviator look with a standard temple rather than a bayonet, the Checkmate is for you.
