In an homage to the classic, Leica has released the Trinovid Classic binoculars. With a design reminiscent of the 1960s Trinovids, the new binoculars are sleek and elegant, featuring a black leather wrap. While they may look old school, however, their performance is decidedly modern. The  latest glass types and coatings yield vibrant colors with high contrast, while images stay bright out to the edges. Protected by an ultra-light aluminum housing, the Trinovids are both splash and weather proof. 

The Leica Trinovid Classics come in three magnifications, 7X-35mm, 8X-40mm and 10X-40mm. The 7X-35mm model offers maximum overview, compact dimensions and the ability to scan blur-free, thanks to its 7X maximum magnification. The 8X-40mm model, meanwhile, is a great happy medium, offering clear bright images, with good overview and detail recognition. This is the recommended choice for hunters glassing for game. Finally, the 10X-40mm option uses its intense levels of magnification to allow the user a deep insight into whats going on far afield.

All models come with a black neoprene carrying strap, a calf-leather pouch, eyepiece covers and a lens cleaning cloth. For more information, please visit leicasportoptics.comMSRP: $1,425-$1,575
