Original WW2 RAF MKVII Flying Googles

An original pair of RAF MK VII Goggles in good condition which date from the Second World War.

These goggles are one of the most iconic of all RAF goggles and saw use with aircrews from 1942 and  also saw action with USAAF crews, Fleet Air Arm and Coastal Command amongst others.

This particular pair are in nice condition and still retain a fair amount of their original blue paint to the brass frames. The bridge piece bears clear Air Ministry and crown marking along with the RAF stores reference code of 22C/826 and both of the nuts are the originals. The original grey elastic strap is still present although it is well used with some rust marks etc as illustrated in the pictures. It features the standard chromium plated metal levered adjuster. The lenses are in good condition with some limited sign of delamination, as is often encountered on goggles of this vintage. There are some rust marks etc as illustrated in the pictures. 

Overall these are a very nice pair of guaranteed original wartime RAF goggles which are in good condition and have clearly seen action. 

This is a vintage item which is 'sold as seen'
