Aviator Sunglasses

Aviator sunglasses are defined by a teardrop-shaped lens outline, typically broader across the upper section and tapering towards the lower inner edge. The depth of the lenses and the degree of curvature along their perimeter determine how pronounced this silhouette appears. A double bridge is a recurring feature, adding a second horizontal element above the nose bridge and connecting the upper sections of the frame. Its spacing, thickness and shape contribute to the design of the front. Fine metal rims can emphasise the lens outline, while more substantial constructions give greater definition to the perimeter.

Apodep’s selection of aviator sunglasses includes Spitzer and Phoenix by Akoni. Explore the two models through their lens proportions, bridge design and the construction details that distinguish each interpretation of the aviator silhouette.
