A unique style, Revo 961 005 sunglasses are extremely hard to find and have a number of subtle design features that explain the popularity if not the rarity. The front of the frame features a brushed gold and slightly flared design, more angular than many Revo styles and reminiscent in a way of vintage French cat's eye sunglasses from the 1950s and 1960s. However, these Revo 961s are unique in that the lens are framed by a thin tortoise shell band held in place by an outer gold band, a perfect color complement and something we can't recall seeing in any other style of vintage sunglasses. The Revo lens are a particularly unusual shape in these sunglasses, fairly flat on the top but totally rounded on the sides and bottom. One of the most popular color, the Revo 961 005 sunglasses have Revo amber / purple lens measuring approximately 2.125" x 1.65" at the widest points that appear more brown in low light conditions and completely purple in brighter sunlight. The hues of color that come through are really eye catching, and they go great with the gold and tortoise frame which measures approximately 5.5" temple to temple. Each ear stem has the Revo logo near the hinge points, and the inside of one stem is marked 961/005 Frame Italy.
