      Comments about U.S. Military Issue Sunglasses - Pilot 52mm:

      These are the real thing, made by American Optical, same high quality I remember from my step-dad's military-issued glasses when he was National Guard. The arms slip easily under tight winter caps and, despite not having ear hooks, stay on well when you have no headgear to help keep them there, as well.

        Comments about U.S. Military Issue Sunglasses - Pilot 52mm:

        I am hard on sunglasses. These hold up as good as any. I have bought them over several years and plan to continue. It seems like lens quality is not as good is it was, but it could be my vision. I have been told that these are not military issue any more, but that doesnt matter. They're an incredible value compared to other glasses.

        Comments about U.S. Military Issue Sunglasses - Pilot 52mm:

        These are plenty big - I originally got the 57mm and those were huge. I'm 6'3" and 210 lbs. These are quality sunglasses but pretty old school. I like them as a backup pair for the car. On bright days the grey lenses are great

          Comments about U.S. Military Issue Sunglasses - Pilot 52mm:

          Great glasses.

          The sixes that they suggest are not entirely accurate though. I'm 6'0" and 200lbs, and wear a large. However I needed to order the bigger size of glasses, b/c I have a big head apparently!

          Anyway, they're awesome shades, just dark enough to give protection, but not TOO dark.
