HOT ! American Optics Original Pilot Blood Moon

In 1969, man landed on the moon. It took exceptional gear to get there, including the Original Pilot. This limited edition pair honors that history.

AO’s connection to the moon goes beyond Apollo 11. We were there when the dream of space travel became a reality and we were there when man’s first steps on the moon were taken. We celebrate the moon in all of its phases, including those rare moments when our own planet overshadows it, reflecting our light to turn the moon a deep red.

Throughout history, a blood moon signifies a time to reflect on your own journey, to let go of what’s holding you back and explore your wildest dreams. No special equipment is required to view a blood moon, just gaze up at the night sky.

Bayonet temples are serialized for authenticity and were designed to eliminate helmet, hat, and headset interference.  AOLite™ SunVogue nylon lenses echo the moon’s deep red glow during an eclipse, finished with a custom lens etch commemorating this rare lunar event.  Matte armor black velvet plating evokes the darkened skies of an eclipse.
