When we put together our definitive roundup of iconic cinematic sunglasses, Persol came up a lot, leading us to the conclusion that we’d co-sign any style from the timeless Italian brand. But every gent should have a pair of aviators, so when you get the chance to snag Persol pilot sunnies for over $250 off, there’s really no reason not to.
Right now, Drop is hosting a two-day sale on the sunglasses, discounting the Persols down from $367 to just $89 or $99 a pair depending on the style you choose. There are five available, including black with green lenses (the only polarized pair, and thus a little more expensive), tortoise with grey lenses, tortoise with green lenses, tortoise with violet lenses and Light Havana with blue lenses. If you’re not familiar with “Light Havana,” it is the definitive Persol colorway, the sunset-orange style in the photo above — basically what summer would look like if you could melt it down, mold it and wear it on your face.
If you’re not familiar with Drop, it’s an online deals shop that’s only accessible if you give them your email. Considering you won’t find these discounts anywhere else, and you can opt out of their emails if you wish, it’s a no brainer.
Even if it’s going to be winter for a few more months where you are, chances are you should be wearing sunglasses more frequently. So go ahead and score these sub-$100 shades while you can.
