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 size markings 50x21x145 mean? A: They refer to the lens width, bridge width and temple length in millimetres. In practical terms, this is generally a medium-sized frame, but overall fit also depends on your face shape and the size you normally wear.
Q: Can these be worn with or without the clip-on lenses? A: Yes. The TF5970-B design uses a removable clip-on sun attachment, so the frame can be worn on its own and then adapted for brighter outdoor conditions when you want extra shade.
Q: Can I have prescription lenses fitted to this frame? A: This model is commonly sold as an optical-style frame with a removable sun clip, so it is generally considered prescription-friendly. Your optician can confirm the best lens option based on your prescription and the condition of the frame.
Q: Do the clip-on lenses provide sun protection? A: Tom Ford describes the original TF5970-B sun clip as offering 100% UV protection. As with any pre-owned eyewear, we recommend checking the fit and overall condition before regular outdoor wear.
Q: What condition is this pre-owned pair in? A: The overall condition is listed as Very Good. The frame shows light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Please review the photos carefully for the clearest view of this exact pair.
Q: Are the photos of the actual item for sale? A: Yes. A Retro Tale states that the images shown on its website are actual photos of the individual item listed, helping you assess condition and details before purchase.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This pair comes with a box. If any other items are not listed in the product information, they should not be assumed to be included.
Q: Where were these Tom Ford sunglasses made? A: The country of origin label states Italy.
Q: How should I care for the acetate frame and clip-on lenses? A: Clean them gently with a soft microfibre cloth and, if needed, a little lukewarm water. Avoid harsh cleaners, abrasive fabrics and prolonged heat, and store the pair safely in its box or another protective case when not in use.
Q: How do you authenticate pre-owned Tom Ford eyewear? A: Every item sold by A Retro Tale is authenticated by in-house experts through a multi-step process. For additional reassurance, the company also offers optional third-party digital certificates of authenticity.
