Tom Ford Sunglasses

Precision in Design & Material

Every pair of sunglasses alters the expression of a face, the attitude of a look. Tom Ford sunglasses for men do this in a particularly striking way – with refined lines, thoughtful designs, and a range of materials chosen with the utmost care. As such, the brand’s models rank among the ultimate luxury accessories in the fashion world and are essential style pieces in any sophisticated wardrobe.

This dedication is especially evident in the Private Collection: handcrafted frames made from polished buffalo horn, subtly accented with signature T-shaped metal detailing. Each pair is unique – shaped by its natural grain, nuanced colour variations, and a tactile quality that far surpasses industrial mass production. The collection is deliberately limited – not for prestige, but out of principle.

Tom Ford sunglasses for men were further elevated to icon status through Daniel Craig’s appearances as James Bond: in Quantum of Solace, Skyfall, and Spectre, several models made their on-screen debut – from the bold Snowdon in Havana style to the delicate aviator frames. Paired with a tailored suit, leather jacket or polo shirt, they reveal how versatile a single accessory can be – and just how effortlessly Bond wears Tom Ford.

Whether in classic aviator shape, a sporty take on the panto form, or bold, angular frames – the selection is carefully curated. Tom Ford designs sunglasses as part of a cohesive, functional look – for in-between seasons, summer days, business trips or holidays. Never trend-led, never arbitrary. But precisely attuned to materials, style, and impact.

Is There a Difference Between Tom Ford Sunglasses for Women and Men?

Yes – and the difference lies primarily in the design approach. Tom Ford sunglasses for men typically feature bolder shapes, with wider frames, cleaner lines, and colours such as black, dark green or anthracite. Signature models like aviators or sharply contoured panto styles emphasise a masculine aesthetic without compromising on refined design.
Women’s models, on the other hand, lean more towards flowing silhouettes, softer edges, and occasionally playful detailing. Butterfly-style sunglasses with almond-shaped lenses are currently on trend, for example – but they play little to no role in Tom Ford’s men’s collections.

Are Tom Ford Sunglasses Unisex?

Many of the men’s Tom Ford sunglasses are designed with a neutral aesthetic, making them perfectly wearable for a unisex audience. This is especially true for classic frames like the Snowdon, whose minimalist design works equally well in both menswear and more feminine styles. The unisex appeal is also reflected in the choice of materials: polished acetate, delicate stainless steel, and temples with titanium alloy – all functional, lightweight, and durable. Ultimately, it’s less about the label and more about the combination of look, fit, and personal style.

What Are the Benefits of Tom Ford Sunglasses with UV 400 Protection?

UV 400 protection means that the lenses block all ultraviolet rays up to a wavelength of 400 nanometres – not just UVA and UVB rays, but also the shorter-wave UVC rays. This level of protection is standard across all high-quality Tom Ford sunglasses for men, including polarised models.
Polarised lens technology offers an added advantage: it significantly reduces glare from reflective surfaces such as water, snow, asphalt or glass. This makes a noticeable difference during extended wear – whether you're driving, on holiday, or travelling for business – helping to reduce eye strain and improve overall visual comfort.

Do Tom Ford Sunglasses Offer Full UV Protection?

Yes. All current models – including those from the exclusive Private Collection – come equipped with lenses that provide full UV protection. This isn’t an optional feature but a core element of the Tom Ford brand. Whether it’s pilot-style sunglasses with gradient lenses or dark, fully tinted versions like the classic black Tom Ford men’s model – the level of protection remains consistently high across all designs. And don’t forget: strong sunlight isn’t limited to summer. Even in winter and early spring, glare can be intense – so it’s always worth having a pair of designer sunglasses for men on hand to enjoy both the protection and the style they offer.

What Materials Are Tom Ford Sunglasses Made From?

The selection of materials is deliberately limited – with a focus on durability, wearing comfort, and aesthetic appeal. Among the materials used are:

• Acetate: lightweight, skin-friendly, and shape-retaining – often used as the base for both solid-coloured and patterned frames, such as the classic tortoiseshell design, which visually resembles a turtle's shell.
• Metal: used, for example, in aviator styles to create a minimalist profile with precise lines.
• Buffalo horn: featured in selected models from the Private Collection, carefully handpicked with a unique natural grain.
• Titanium: combined with stainless steel, particularly for fine temples with matte finishes.

The high quality is evident not only visually but also in how the glasses feel – in the balance of weight, the grip of the temples, and the smooth transitions between frame and lens.

What Models of Tom Ford Are Available?

The collection of Tom Ford men’s sunglasses is stylistically diverse yet carefully curated. Rather than indulging in arbitrary shapes, Tom Ford focuses on classic silhouettes with a modern refinement – tailored to suit different face shapes, occasions, and outfits. Here is an overview of the key styles:

Aviator Style – sporty, casual, confident

This iconic sunglasses style shaped the look of legends such as Elvis Presley and David Bowie, as well as the character of Lieutenant Pete, played by Tom Cruise in the 1980s film Top Gun. Tom Ford’s take on the classic aviator features a bold, confident design. A metal frame, double bridge, teardrop-shaped lenses and slim temples create a masculine look with presence – enhanced by tinted and/or coloured lenses. This eye-catching piece is also available in acetate versions.

Model example: Jaden –gold frame, green-tinted mirrored lenses in keeping with the original styles, a bold silhouette, and a distinctive bridge with tortoiseshell acetate detailing.
Special feature: Often available with polarised lens technology – reduces glare, ideal for bright environments and reflective surfaces.

Panto Shape –timeless, urban, refined

The panto frame is a classic among men’s styles. Its gently rounded cut combined with well-defined proportions makes it a stylish choice for everyday wear, the office, or weekends. It is especially popular because it suits almost everyone and can effortlessly be worn for nearly any occasion. Opt for a model in Havana or black – timeless colours also favoured by James Bond.

Model example: Ansel – black acetate front, evenly tinted plastic lenses, classic silver T-details on the hinges, balanced lines.
Special feature: Works confidently with any kind of men’s fashion, from cotton shirts to lightweight blazers.

Rectangular Frames – angular, timeless, versatile

Rectangular sunglasses frames are a defining feature of the brand’s collection. With clean contours, striking presence, and high wearing comfort, they are an archetypal element of Tom Ford’s design and an expression of fashionable confidence.

Model example: Alberto – wide acetate frame with equally broad temples in the signature Havana design, distinctive T-logo, and lenses that are both tinted and polarised.
Special feature: Perfect for urban looks with a flair for trends, as well as for round faces, since the angular design adds definition and visually elongates the face.

Round Lenses –charismatic, retro-inspired, stylish

Round frames make a statement – and are much more than just a trend from past decades. In the Tom Ford collection, they receive a masculine, modern interpretation: rather than nostalgic or playful, the design is balanced, smart, and distinctive. Ideal for men who want to impress with individuality and understatement. Round frame shapes give the face a soft, refined appearance and suit narrower or angular facial features particularly well.

Model example: Ian – combines classic round lenses with Tom Ford’s signature style: an elegant acetate frame, usually in black or Havana, accented by the iconic T-logo on the temples. The evenly tinted lenses look sophisticated and modern, while the slim yet precisely shaped temples ensure comfortable wear. Ian is a model for connoisseurs – subtle, stylish, and confident.
Special feature: The round shape with clean lines complements minimalist outfits just as well as casual summerwear. Whether paired with a linen shirt, polo, or vintage T-shirt, Tom Ford’s men’s sunglasses add a touch of refined coolness to any look.
