The General is the quintessential aviator from the company that originated the style. A favorite of U.S. military pilots for more than 50 years. Engineered to rigid military specifications and built to last, they're the only aviator you'll need. The General features adjustable nosepads so it's easy to customize the frame for your perfect fit. The tear-drop silhouette of this aviator is perhaps the most universal shape to fit nearly every face shape - for men and women.
All of our Progressive Rx sunglasses come standard with thin and light, impact-resistant lenses and our premium anti-reflection coating to enhance visual clarity and comfort so you can see clearly in the distance and read up close, too. And our 1-Year Scratch Warranty means we'll replace your scratched Rx lenses within one year of purchase — at no charge and with no questions asked.
