I have a pair of vintage AO glasses 5 1/2 (with double line milled AO and "American Optical" written on the temples. The upper bridge has "Command AO/USA" written on it. The glasses were given to me by a friend who found them in a box in his attic. Would you know to help determine if it is genuine American Optical.Thanks for your help!

That was a poor designer. A real designer worthy of the title would have duplicated the inner pocket rather than take away functionality. I wish they had a long sleeve liner, be easier to keep the jacket clean by being able to machine or hand wash the liner of the sweat. I am also used to sleeved liners on military jackets.
