help Randolph Engineering Aviator FAQ
Are Randolph Engineering Aviators the same style used by U.S. military pilots?
Randolph Engineering built aviator sunglasses for U.S. military use, including frames associated with the HGU-4/P pilot style. The company is based in Randolph, Massachusetts and has been making metal-frame eyewear since the 1970s.
What is the difference between Randolph Aviator and Randolph Concorde frames?
The Aviator has the classic teardrop pilot shape, while the Concorde has a slightly more squared navigator-style lens. Both are metal-frame Randolph models, but the Aviator is the more traditional flight-sunglasses silhouette.
Do Randolph Aviators use glass or polycarbonate lenses?
Randolph sells Aviators with different lens options, including polarized and non-polarized lenses depending on the model. For exact lens material, check the specific SKU because Randolph offers multiple lens technologies rather than one universal lens.
Why do Randolph Aviators cost more than many fashion aviators?
They are made in the United States with soldered metal frames, bayonet or skull temples, and replaceable parts. The price reflects a durable military-spec design rather than a disposable fashion frame.
