Persol is a brand steeped in history. In 1917, in Turin, Italy Giuseppi Ratti began what would become Persol. Giuseppi, a photographer and optician, began to make glasses in his little villa and he called them Protector. Made using round smoked lenses with rubber edges and attached to the head by elastic straps. Soon they were adopted by pilots in the Italian Military Aviation, then other air forces around the world including in the United States, and the Swiss Military Department in 1927. In the 1930’s the brand developed into Persol from “per il sole” meaning “for the sun.” This highlighted their function of protection against the sun’s harmful rays. The late 1930’s saw the introduction of the world’s first flexible stem, the MeFlecto system. The innovations and applications continued and by the 1960’s Persol had worldwide adoption. Soon top personalities of the time were wearing Persol, including Greta Garbo and Steve McQueen. Having conquered many fronts, Persol moved into extreme conditions testing and they soon developed glasses that were worn in Siberia by training Soviet cosmonauts and climbers in the Himalayan Mountains. In 1995 giant Luxottica Group bought Persol, although kept the brand true, and today Persol glasses are still made in Turin, Italy. Persol models 2244-S and 2720-S were both used in the move Casino Royale.
The Persol Sport collection was begun in 1990 focusing on people with an active lifestyle. All styles are available with or without polarized lenses.
In 1991 the first Persol boutique was opened in Beverly Hills. Today Persols are sold worldwide through distributors and boutiques.
Persol sunglasses are available from $125 to $420.
