The Persol Gae 3391S sunglasses bring contemporary Italian design to one of eyewear’s most respected names. Built from premium cellulose acetate and featuring Persol’s signature Supreme Arrow on the temples, these square frames balance modern geometry with the brand’s century-old commitment to comfort and craftsmanship.
Persol—derived from the Italian “per il sole” (for the sun)—has been handcrafting eyewear in Turin since Giuseppe Ratti founded the company in 1917. The Gae 3391S carries forward that heritage with acetate frames made from cotton and wood pulp, a material prized for its durability, hypoallergenic properties, and rich color depth. The tortoise and havana finishes show the layered complexity that only quality acetate can deliver, while the clean square shape offers a sharp, structured look that works across face shapes.
The temples feature Persol’s iconic Supreme Arrow—inspired by ancient warriors’ swords and introduced in the 1930s—along with the brand’s patented Meflecto flexible temple system. Meflecto uses metal cylinders embedded in the acetate stems to let the frame adapt to your head shape, eliminating pressure points during all-day wear. It’s a 10-step process compared to standard frames, and the difference is noticeable when you’re wearing them for hours.
The 3391S is fully prescription-ready, accepting single vision, progressive, and polarized prescription lenses. Available in 53mm and 55mm eye sizes with options ranging from classic green crystal lenses to polarized brown and gradient styles, the frame accommodates different preferences and needs. All lenses provide 100% UVA/UVB protection.
Quality acetate frames like these typically last 5-10+ years with proper care—significantly longer than standard plastic alternatives. The material resists cracking, holds its shape, and won’t become brittle over time. For a unisex frame that delivers both style and function, the Gae 3391S is a solid choice whether you’re driving, traveling, or just navigating daily life in the sun.
