About Persol:
Founded in 1917 by Giuseppe Ratti, Persol is an Italian eyewear company. The name is derived from “per il sole,” which means “for the sun” in Italian. The company originally catered to pilots and sports car drivers with the line’s sports wear focus and durability. Persol was introduced to the States in 1962. Early on, the brand was popularized by Steve McQueen and, later, Don Johnson and Tom Cruise, to name a few of the many celebrities who have sported Persol.
