Eyeglass Frame I.D. Filter

January 1, 2008 9:15 PM

Looking for the designer/brand/model # of these specs comedian David Cross is wearing. Link to pics inside

The only telltale logo is a circle comprised of six circles or stars on the temple/hinge. First pic is of the frames head on and the second shows it at angle where the temple logo is visible.

many thanks in advance.

Just go into any eye glass shop and you'll find a few million pairs that look exactly like those. Big square frames (especially with the sideparts) like these are big now (pun! Although it's been awhile, so they're probably on the way out)

However if for some reason you must have that pair, try printing those pictures and visiting a few frame shops. Try some up market and some down market ones to improve your chances (those look a little cheap, to my eyes, however, which knowing the world of fashion, and based on past experiences when I've called things cheap means they're about £50,000 and fashioned from angels).

You could ask him at his blog.

I've also seen glasses like those all over. If you live in a city with even an EyeMasters or LensCrafter, shouldn't be too hard to find something very similar.

Response by poster: thanks for the responses, my apologies for not being clearer in the i.d. of the frame. The logo on the temple is remarkably similar to the logo/background of a project i'm on and I thought it would be so cool to incorporate the eye frames into it w/o having to get all DIY and pry off the existing logo off of some specs or ruin some blank black frames with paint or a sticker which I just know wouldn't turn out as well. The Cross frames could still be usable after the project to me for free!!! but oh well, hopefully someone is bored and going through old posts and can help otherwise I have sent off a note to him on his website hoping for an answer.
