These stills are from the movie Half Nelson, if that helps.

I googled, but didnt find anything. There was a SUFU thread about them, but nobody knew what they were or found anything similar.

I think I like these better than the ones I ones from the movie. I may buy these. Thanks. Id really prefer not to spend $218 on them, but I will if I find nothing that I like better for cheaper.

Anybody know of anything else?

You could probably find something like them in a good eyeglasses shop.

Salt Terry

I think either Giorgio Armani or Boss makes one too. I cant remember. Also Prodesign Mod. 7608 is similar but a bit smaller.

Those salts are so rad, I've been bugging this local eye store to get those models in. They only carry ugly salts

If it is a reputable store and you are genuine about buying it, he can order them in NO PROBLEM. But I agree, they are pretty cool. They fit very high too, so it fits people with low nose bridges too.

+1 Oliver Goldsmith.

They are an iconic line that has been around for a LONG time. Oliver Goldsmith pioneered the larger plastic sunglasses back in the late 60's. They are hand made and are of high quality.
