Checkmate aviator sunglasses revive a lesser‑known AO archival design, updated for modern proportions. Featuring a slimmer bridge and a shallow rectangular lens shape, these aviator glasses strike a balance between the Original Pilot and the General. Designed with standard temples rather than bayonets, Checkmate offers a familiar feel for those who prefer a traditional aviator fit. Polarized sunglasses also available.

I own a number of pairs of A-O's. My first is a pair of Skymasters that I've owned since 1970, with a refurbish a few years ago. These Checkmates are of the same quality, but lighter in weight than my Skymasters. I do prefer the bent temples, and these fill the bill. A-O continues to make outstanding sunglasses and I'm certainly glad that I bought them.
Quality products! I’m a repeat Customer :)
Made so damn well, you'll want a second pair.
