Persol Ratti Aviator Frames

persol-ratti-main

With clear lenses showing up on everyone from Dsquared2 runway models to Kanye West this spring, oversized glasses don’t seem to be going anywhere. It’s no surprise that this classic set comes from Persol, the Italian eyewear maker that has been creating timeless frames for almost 100 years for the likes of Steve McQueen and James Bond. With the gold bridge and signature arrow symbol at the temple, these Ratti Aviator frames have a distinctly vintage vibe, a perfect match for the Baracuta jacket and other nods to retro style seen everywhere this spring. These frames are available in black and tortoise shell, and can also be retrofitted with dark lenses for the summer sun, if you so desire. You can find them at Refinery 29.
