Papa Nui Coral Cruiser Sunglasses.
In War Service, Navy and Marine aviators thank Papa Nui for helping them combat the glare of the sun, the sea, the sky.
Featuring tough CR-39 Lenses! Lenses that were developed in the 1940’s and began as a high density shatterproof plastic for use in B-17 fuel tanks to reduce weight and greatly enhance bomber range. Lighter than glass and scratch resistant these lenses provide superior vision in critical situations, ensuring your eyes are protected from the harmful ultra violet and infrared rays and providing an advantage in all fighting conditions whether it be combat in the clouds or storming your local beach head.
Hand crafted in Sabae prefecture Japan, the Papa Nui Coral Cruisers are a premium aviator style taking strong visual cues from early USN issue sunglasses but updated with contemporary quality enhanced materials.
Built to the War Departments specifications from premium acetate and hinged with optimal stainless steel fixtures, Papa Nui Coral Cruiser Sunglasses come in a recycled Army canvas service case and Frog Camo sock to help protect and care for this essential part of your fighting kit.
Available in USMC Olive Drab semi opaque or USN N3B Yellow semi opaque, both with green lenses.
Specs: 145mm x 54mm
I never thought a brand new pair of the old USN issue sunglasses would be available. Papa's attention to detail in hats is replicated again here. Just perfect.
I agonised over this project for years to bring it to life, thank you!
Best sunglasses I’ve ever owned! 11/10 I recommend buying yourself a pair
Cole so glad you love them, I bet they look awesome with the Atoll flyers Jacket.
Dude. I love these things. So unique, a great concept, and built super well. Caught a flight of Zeros coming out of the sun but the Coral Cruisers didn’t fail. After splashing a A6M5, took my best gal out for some dinner, looking quite stylish in the Cruisers.
Nothing like a soiree in the Nurses quarters after a day of flying combat
I was concerned when I preordered the Coral Cruisers because many sunglasses pinch my fat head. I wear a 7 5/8 hat, for instance. I was pleasantly surprised as how comfortable the glasses were, and I loved the unique style. Buy them, you’ll love them!
Great Kevin, your block head is the stalwart stuff of the Atoll Defenders
A great pair of sunglasses that exceeded my already high expectations! Beautifully presented, with great care and detail put into the packaging and case/sock combo. The glasses themselves are something else, I've never had a pair of Japanese made glasses before but they are just what you would expect from a Japanese manufacturer, absolutely fantastic quality. Many thanks for making these a reality 👍
Awesome Pera, keep an eye out for those Meatballs, they normally dive out of the sun.
