Sunglasses come in all shapes and sizes. And yet, aviator glasses are one of the coolest-looking types of sunglasses available today. Not only are aviator sunglasses good from a style perspective, but they’re also incredibly practical, as they offer better eye protection than many other styles of sunglasses. This is because their teardrop-shaped frames cover a wider portion of the eye and the surrounding area, limiting the amount of UV rays that can enter the eye, which improves visibility while reducing eye strain and fatigue. Not to mention they always have that unique head-turning look to them. For a pair of aviator sunglasses that deliver both style and functionality, check out the GUNNAR Mustang Sunglasses.
