Beautiful and light, Giorgio Armani 248-S sunglasses are a predecessor of thin and light designs by modern companies like Maui Jim but with all that classic Armani Italian design flair. It's a layered black front frame with a yellow tortoise shell rear frame around the lens, giving you contrasting colors between front and back and the kind of thing that gets noticed. Black hinges round the corners at the temples to end at a small ball, after which the stems continue thinning down to the ear pads. Despite the thinness, Armani found enough space to properly mark each stem with the inside of one marked 248-S 1042 135 and the inside of the other stem marked Giorgio Armani Made Italy CE. You'll also find Giorgio Armani embossed on the outside of each ear stem about halfway down, and you'll enjoy the subtlety of the markings compared with some of the garish designer logos used on new sunglasses today. This is a great frame for men and women, measuring approximately 5.375" temple to temple with lenses measuring approximately 2.0" x 1.125" at the widest points.
