Those also kind of look like these Nom De Guerre x Oliver Peoples

I've been thinking about purchasing some clear framed sunglasses and I'm trying to decide between these two pairs:

PS x OP

I generally have a tan complexion during the summer, so should I steer clear of the beige/crystal frames of the PS x OP?

Correct, also Robert Cavali, Miss Sixty, Dsquared2, and other names. If you can snag Tom Forad at under 200, thats a steal! But I hope its not fake!

the PS is going to be 100x the frame that super is. I personally prefer the styling as well, but then again, I don't find the 80s "ironic" yet so oversized wayfarers aren't on my list of must-haves.

Thanks Dave. I knew the PS were higher quality and luckily a local eye glasses store can order the frame and let me them on before having to buy.

I still haven't found it yet either. I've got the tip to look for Oliver Peoples (strummer) glasses, but those arent the ones either.

Anyone know where I can find round, clear-framed sunglasses like Leon wore in The Professional? I'm having a hard time locating something like them.

Im going to order some Ray Ban Wayfarers but have a question about which size to get. The Sunglasses I currently wear are 58mm Eye and 12mm Bridge. On the 2140's I have the choice between 50mm Eye and 22 Bridge or 54mm Eye and 18mm Bridge. Which one do you think would be the better fit? I would try on but no place near me sells these(surprising I know).

I think you should go with the 54-18. It is closer in size to your current and also a 22mm bridge is quite wide.

I'd like to find a pair of 649's - beat up or not - for under a hundred.

Im looking for vintage style flip up sunglasses that are rimmed (preferably metal) to fit on a pair of Moscot Yukel 48/22s. I've ordered a pair of Polaroid ones for driving but would like one that have a rim around the lens. I'm thinking of Tom Hank's character in Catch Me If You Can.

This will be very difficult if even available. I know you can buy rimless omes that can be cut to size. And metal ones that are clipped on with prongs, but havent seen what are you describing. Although I have seen one that came with glasses but in metal.

I think I'd have to disagree with you on this one. I would guess that dudes current frames are some sort of aviator style or else 58s would be windshields. In order to preserve the same overall proportions with a different style frame I'd say go with the 50s. besides, XL wayfarers look retarded on all but about 1% of the population.

These are my current ones.

I understand what you mean, but in all fairness a 22 bridge on a 50 eye is very large. The gap between the lenses will not look proportionate.
