Reproduction WWII U.S. G.I. Sunglasses WW2 1940s US Army GI Soldier Vintage 40s For Sale

New made reproduction WWII US GI sunglasses. These are a unisex item - great for the average WWII GI soldier or for a WAC. Based off of an original example of wartime issued G.I. sunglasses. There were several various designs issued during the war; we chose the best looking design, to be honest, most of the other army sunglasses designs look completely goofy. These, however, are extremely good looking sunglasses that will really set you apart, whether you are at a reenactment or even just for everyday wear. Wearing these feels like wearing originals - except these have UV protection and are shatter resistant (they meet all the FDA guidelines).

These have a more narrow feel than modern sunglasses because that was how glasses were generally made at that time. After a couple days of wearing these, they will really grow on you. No, people's heads weren't smaller back then, this is how glasses fit and you can really see it in original photos also. There inside edge of the ear piece has small ridges for added grip like the originals. The glasses are marked U.S. WES CO 43 on the inside of the left arm. WES CO stands for War's End Shop.

Dimensions (approximate): 5" across and 4 3/4" between the arms, arm length to the hook of the earpiece is 4".

These are designer quality sunglasses custom made to our specifications. They are copied from an original pair and made exclusively for War's End Shop (Kriegsende Militaria). The actual suggested retail was several hundred dollars and they do feel like expensive sunglasses. You can really treat yourself without spending designer sunglasses money. See my other listings for more reproduction (US & German) sunglasses.

I DO COMBINE SHIPPING! I tried to have it set up to automatically combine shipping costs, but that doesn't always work. If you feel it is not correctly combining shipping, please write in the order notes "combine shipping" or something of that nature when you order (not as a separate message). The note in the order flags it for me so it is easier for me to keep track and refund accordingly. I know there should be a simpler way of doing this, but I haven't figured it out, so this is my best option at the moment.

INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: I must declare full value on customs forms. This means you may need to pay taxes / import fees when your item arrives.
