AO Eyewear Launches New Style

Going through the AO design archives illustrates how classic sunglasses stand the test of time. The AO-1002 is based on the vintage AO Sampson style, popularly worn by Truman Capote.

Though the styling looks as fresh as ever, we saw the opportunity to update the shape to flatter more faces and to be easily worn by any gender. To that end, we’ve reengineered the profile and size for a timeless look refreshed for modern times.
