Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What do the numbers 64-14-135 mean on these Tom Ford sunglasses? A: They are the frame measurements in millimetres: 64 mm lens width, 14 mm bridge width, and 135 mm temple (arm) length. Use these to compare with a pair you already own to judge fit.
Q: Do the grey gradient lenses provide UV protection? A: Tom Ford sunglasses are designed to provide full UVA/UVB protection. A gradient tint refers to how dark the lens is from top to bottom, not how much UV it blocks. If you would like us to confirm UV protection for this exact pair before purchase, please contact us.
Q: Are the lenses polarised? A: This pair features grey gradient lenses and is typically non‑polarised unless specifically marked as polarised. Tom Ford does produce polarised versions in some models, but unless stated in the product information or on the lens/packaging, you should assume these are non‑polarised.
Q: Will this size suit my face shape? A: With a 64 mm lens width, this is a larger aviator that tends to suit medium to larger fits. Aviators generally flatter oval and square face shapes by balancing features, while the teardrop lens offers broad coverage.
Q: Can I fit prescription lenses into these frames? A: In most cases, yes. Metal aviator frames like these can usually be glazed with prescription sun lenses by an optician, subject to your prescription, lens thickness and curvature. We recommend taking the frame to your optician for confirmation and lens options.
Q: Are the nose pads and temples adjustable? A: Yes. The metal frame has adjustable nose pads, and an optician can fine‑tune both pads and temple ends for comfort and a secure fit. Avoid DIY bending to prevent damage.
Q: How should I clean and care for them? A: Rinse with lukewarm water, use a drop of mild soap, then dry with a clean microfibre cloth. Avoid paper towels, alcohol, household glass cleaners or hot water, and store the sunglasses in their case when not in use.
Q: What is included in the product information for this item? A: This vintage Tom Ford pair comes with the original box, case, cleaning cloth and an authenticity card, as listed in the product information.
Q: How do I know they’re authentic? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is verified by our in‑house experts. Typical Tom Ford signatures include the metal T detail at the temples, Tom Ford lens etching, model and size markings inside the arm, and Made in Italy markings with Marcolin literature. This piece is Italian‑made and includes branded packaging as noted.
Q: What is the condition? A: Very Good vintage condition with light signs of wear. The hardware is shiny with fine surface scratches, and both exterior and interior show only light traces of use, consistent with careful wear.
