For nearly 50 years, starting in 1888, The Bolle company made combs. It wasn't until 1936 that the company started designing and producing sunglasses, and after the Second World War, they became one of the first manufacturers in the industry to use and shape nylon. It's a material which would set the highest standard in the industry for decades, and is the material that the 1970s sunglasses you see here are made from. These are sleek, stylish and full of history, and have been kept in near-mint condition for close to 50 years. Strongly endorsed and popularized by Olympic and World Cup champion Jean-Claude Killy, these glasses will ship with the official 1970s Killy sticker that came with them, a collectible item on its own. Pick up some of these to give your wardrobe a bit of vintage French flair.
These 1970's Bolle Model 500 Sunglasses are 50 years old and may not initially fit your face very well. However, you can easily take them to a local glasses/vision store and they will heat the sunglasses and adjust them to fit your face. Enjoy the stylish look of these vintage Bolle mirrored sunglasses! Returns are not accepted.
