These Tart Optical FDR also look good with fedora's to get that 1950-60's look. These have transition lenses and look really good for sunglasses.

Robert @GHT & I are founding members of VALES, the Vintage Aviator Lens Extreme Society. Today they call any frame with a nose bar an aviator. We like the vintage lens shape, tortoise shell or Catalan nose bar, & cable ear wires. The more extreme the better. Always on the look for another pair. I think Rick @quikrick would look good in vintage aviators & his porkpies & telescope stingie's.

That’s my generation gap. My dad loved aviator style glasses. My kids love them as well. I can’t do it. I love my horned rimmed Ray-Bans. If my wife wouldn’t freak out I would still have a pair as normal seeing glasses. They don’t look bad, just not for me.Robert @GHT & I are founding members of VALES, the Vintage Aviator Lens Extreme Society. Today they call any frame with a nose bar an aviator.

If you're wearing a vintage hat or clone plus the latest Oakley's or Carrera's from Sunglass Hut, you might as well be wearing a ball cap...turned backwards. It kind of loses it's identity & just becomes a hat at that point. The hats & the Aviator glasses both come from what's been called the Greatest Generation.That’s my generation gap.

The size and shape of the frames depends on your face shape, but for me it’s Wayfarers. I also have the new Wayfarers. My optometrist had a great price on the new lightweight frames (I have to have Rx sunglasses).Ray-Ban New Wayfarers 2

I prefer the classic but when you find them cheap at Costco what can you do.
Stay safe everyone.
