AVIATOR GOGGLE, Léon Jeantet Co., France These are the finest flying, riding, and driving goggles we’ve ever come across. Made by the Léon Jeantet Company of France, founded in 1880 by Eugene Jeantet. Then in 1929 Léon Jeantet created a brand-new form of protective eyewear to match the higher speed forms of mobility that hadn’t existed before, namely: autos, motorcycles and flying machines! Obviously the lenses have changed with the times, from glass to polycarbonate & acetate, but the basics are the same as when they were first made 86 years ago! Very labor-intensive, each set of goggles requires 60 manual operations to completion! Despite their old design, you won’t find a better fitting, more comfortable set of goggles anywhere. We reckon that is what “good design” defines!
These fabulous goggles have a brown or blue calf’s-leather mask, with separate, vented nickel-framed, clear polycarbonate lenses. Also if you wear glasses, these will fit comfortably over them. Has a wide, comfortable and adjustable, nonskid elastic strap. Comes with a micro-fiber cleaning case.
