Tom Ford
Tom Ford eyewear is Hollywood glamour in a frame — bold, confident shapes with the unmistakable metal T at the temple.
Made in Italy in luxe acetates and metals and cut like evening wear. For the wearer who wants their glasses to do some of the talking.

How can I tell if Tom Ford sunglasses are genuine?
Genuine Tom Ford eyewear is made in Italy by Marcolin, with a hand-finished metal T at the temple (not printed), a laser-etched lens mark and a serial number. Bought from OPTIK, an authorised stockist in Johannesburg, every pair is genuine.
Where are Tom Ford sunglasses made?
In Italy, produced under licence by Marcolin — part of what places them a tier above mass designer eyewear.
What is the T on Tom Ford glasses?
The house's signature hallmark — a metal T set into the temple by hand over several finishing steps. It is both a design signature and a quick authenticity cue.
Can I put prescription lenses in Tom Ford frames?
Yes — most Tom Ford optical frames and many of the sunglasses take a prescription, including progressive and blue-light lenses. Optik partners with trusted specialist optical laboratories for the lens manufacturing, while our team manages the measurements, lens selection, frame assessment and final quality check.
