DESCRIPTION RATINGS & REVIEWS PRESCRIPTION GUIDE

The Tom Ford Redford FT1153 Sunglasses bring a modern edge to the classic navigator silhouette. This square-framed design features a distinctive double-bridge construction that sets it apart from traditional aviators, delivering a bold, architectural look that's unmistakably Tom Ford. Made in Italy from premium acetate, the Redford balances luxury craftsmanship with everyday wearability.

Design & Construction

What makes the Redford stand out is its hybrid shape—square lenses with navigator proportions and that signature double bridge. The full-rim acetate frame (56mm lens width, 19mm bridge, 145mm temples) offers a substantial feel without being overly heavy. Tom Ford's iconic metal "T" logo adorns the temples, while exposed core wires add a technical detail that speaks to the brand's attention to finish. The frame is available in four versatile options: shiny black with smoke lenses, dark havana with brown lenses, colored havana with brown lenses, and shiny black with yellow-brown lenses.

The acetate construction provides durability and a refined look, and the integrated nose pads ensure a comfortable, adjustable fit. At this size, the Redford works best for medium to larger faces—some wearers note these run generously, so if you're between sizes, consider trying them on first.

Prescription-Ready & UV Protection

The Redford FT1153 is fully prescription-ready, compatible with single-vision, progressive, and bifocal lenses. You can customize these sunglasses with your exact prescription, making them as functional as they are stylish. All lenses provide 100% UV protection (category 3), blocking harmful UVA and UVB rays. The non-polarized lenses deliver excellent clarity for daily wear, whether you're driving, traveling, or simply out in the sun.

Who It's For

The Redford is designed for men who appreciate luxury eyewear with a contemporary twist. It's a strong choice if you want something more structured than a classic aviator but not as retro as a full square frame. The double-bridge design adds visual interest, and the Tom Ford pedigree ensures you're wearing a frame that's recognized for quality and style. These work equally well in professional settings or casual weekend wear—versatile enough to become your go-to pair.

Tom Ford Redford 1153 vs. Raoul 0753 vs. Fausto 0711

If you're drawn to the Tom Ford Redford's double-bridge navigator design, you might also be considering the Tom Ford Raoul 0753 or the Tom Ford Fausto 0711. Here's how they compare.

Redford 1153 vs. Raoul 0753

Both the Redford and Raoul feature Tom Ford's signature double-bridge navigator construction with acetate frames and the iconic metal "T" logo. The key difference is size and shape: the Redford measures 56mm with a more squared-off lens shape, while the Raoul offers a larger 62mm lens width with a more traditional navigator silhouette. If you have a larger face or prefer a more classic aviator look, the Raoul is the better choice. If you want a modern, structured square-navigator hybrid at a medium-large size, the Redford delivers. Both are priced similarly and offer excellent Italian craftsmanship.

Redford 1153 vs. Fausto 0711

The Fausto takes a different approach—it's an oversized square frame with vintage elegance and bold proportions. While the Redford blends square and navigator elements for versatility, the Fausto is unapologetically retro and statement-making. The Fausto is slightly more expensive and works best for those who want maximum impact and aren't concerned about subtlety. The Redford, by contrast, is easier to wear daily and transitions seamlessly from professional to casual settings.

Which Should You Choose?

Choose the Redford 1153 if you want a versatile, modern square-navigator hybrid that works for medium to larger faces and offers a balance of boldness and wearability. Choose the Raoul 0753 if you prefer a larger, more traditional navigator shape. Choose the Fausto 0711 if you want an oversized, vintage-inspired square frame that makes a strong style statement. All three are prescription-ready, made in Italy, and built to Tom Ford's exacting standards.
