Replica World War II Aviation Goggles
Friday, 5 February 2010 15:45:36 GMT
We are currently working towards making a WWII Replica vintage flying goggle for customers that would like a style more in keeping with the original World War Two military issued goggles.
The variations between our current Halcyon Aviator goggles and the original military issued are:
1. No “Halcyon” and “BS No.” stamping on the goggle frames.
2. The shape of the goggle frame above the eye is far more curved.
3. The grey colour of the goggle frame and strap.
4. The face mask is independently stitched to the nose bridge area with webbing
5. The clip that attaches to the frame is much smaller and more compact
6. The headband adjuster includes leather tabs.
The accuracy that we achieve is dependant on the level of interest for this replica goggle, so if this is something you would be eager to get your hands on, please leave a comment on this blog so that we can decide how far to develop it.
