Can't find Tony Stark's sunglasses from Iron Man 3

In more RDJ frame news, I came across these 3 images a while back...

It's hard to be 100% sure with the quality of the 3 images, but these black/dark grey frames with lighter grey areas look to me to be Salvatore Ferragamo SF639S in the black/grey striped 003 (57□16 135) with dark gradient grey lenses...

The images do (only just) show the silver signature Ferragamo hinges and the script logo, which is only present on the left arm. Thankfully, the images show both arms for confirmation that they are at least Ferragamo frames...

The rounded curve of the lenses in the top corners of the frame and the curvature on the lower lighter sections of the frame itself seem to match...

The lightest areas of the grey marble sections of the frame are also clearly visible...

I can't seem to find any more than the 3 images for better confirmation, nor can I establish a date when the images were even taken, but I'll hazard a guess due to when he also wore these hi-tops...

...as circa 2013, which is also when the brown Ferragamo SF634S (from p.207 & p.208) made an appearance in Paris.


I spotted a great deal on a $30 pair...

...and bought them to tuck away as highly viable contenders in anticipation of more images emerging. Hopefully, he may wear these SF frames again at some point in the future when he dons grey in his outfits.

Salvatore Ferragamo SF639S 003...

Thanks so much!!! I wonder if the USA ones are old, custom, or unreleased.

Hi gotmeth,
I've received a reply from M-Experiment customer support (below)...

Apologies to your buddy man, it's not the outcome he would have wanted, but I suppose due to the lack of images, it was pointing towards customs with the light blue and the black Pleasure frames both with stars & stripes.
He may have to make do and compromise with the available black and gold that Connor Zilisch has worn for now.

I suppose we are quite lucky so far with RDJ frames, as aside from discontinued or vintage items, the only real custom frame where we have all hit a dead end, has been the Downey Bevans Exchange frames.

-UV.

Thank you so much for trying!! You have no idea how much that means to me! I almost forgot about the DBE frames!

 

[UV400]

No problem, glad I could be of assistance!!

Yeah, me too, I have to keep reminding myself to search for DBE frames, you never know, a random pair that went AWOL may work its way onto eBay!!

Another non RDJ frame that I was ecstatic to track down. These are Clyde Montana 533 frames that Laurence Fishburne wore in the 1990 film king of new york. One of my favorite films.
