**A Persol classic since the ‘50s**
Originally made in the 1950s to shield tram drivers in Turin, Italy from the sun, Persol's Original 649 became legendary when actor Marcello Mastroianni wore them in the 1961 film *Divorce Italian Style*. The design has remained largely untouched ever since. A smooth, 3-notched "Keyhole" bridge and flexible “Meflecto” stem provide all-day comfort, while each pair’s acetate-pigmentation blend gives the frames a stylish, one-of-a-kind look. Finally, Barberini® crystal lenses give you superior sun protection and clarity—whether you’re exploring the Italian countryside or channeling Mastroianni’s timeless style.
