'Bronson' Sunglasses — Red, FT1044

Tom Ford 'Bronson' Sunglasses — Red, Size 61-10-140
Tom Ford’s ‘Bronson’ is the house’s most enduring pilot silhouette — a large-format aviator frame in brown acetate with polarized gradient lenses, named for the American actor whose iconography Ford has drawn from across multiple collections. In brown tortoise with a 61mm lens, it is the most versatile and most legible version the Bronson is produced in. It features:

Oversized pilot/aviator silhouette in warm brown acetate — 61mm lens, 10mm bridge, 140mm temple
Polarized gradient lenses with UV400 protection and anti-reflective coating
T-logo hardware at the temples — the house’s defining accessory signature
Full-rim acetate construction with substantial weight and presence
Includes original Tom Ford case and cleaning cloth

The tortoise acetate carries a warmth that the black variant lacks — it reads against all skin tones in a way that makes the Bronson more of a year-round frame than its scale might suggest. At 61mm the lens is large without being theatrical; the pilot silhouette is expansive without becoming costume.

Tom Ford’s eyewear has always existed in conversation with classic American masculinity — the Bronson specifically references a sun-soaked ease that reads equally in the South of France and on a terrace in Malibu. In brown, polarized, it is the frame for every outdoor hour from late April to early October.
