Will replace glasses that shed the inner plastic nose grips. No fault of Rothco; could be careless handling or improper storage while outdoors or inside places. J B weld creates permanent reattachment of similar inner nose grips from inexpensive thrift shop sunglasses, a buck, and these are good as spares or to wear under less stressful conditions. Still, there is nothing like the fit you can create with a brand new pair of Rothco air force sunglasses. The goal is not just sun shade but to look pro and to look cool also. Joe Zamora

I've had the entire colors collection of aviator style sunglasses since 1994. Some I gave to kids, while a few were lost or stolen at public places. Live and learn, bad persons will steal to be mean, to feel smart, or to have what they see. Never down these sunglasses alone. 3 shades of green, a shade of blue, a yellow, a brown, a smoke, and a mirror shade is what I have. The green and the brown sunglasses are both missing the soft plastic nose grips and I still wonder how or why that happened. I will locate replacements but until then just keep your chin up Joe and carry on with the mission. Keep searching, capital idea. Each pair of these sunglasses matches an identical shade of a shirt, a tie, slacks, or military cargo pants.
