Felix Leiter's Dr. No Shades

mediapig · June 2010

Does anyone know what kind of groovy shades Jack Lord was wearing as Felix Leiter in Dr. No? And is anything similar available today? I doubt I could pull them off, but I'd love to try!

Ray Ban Wayfarers most likely. My Dad had a pair. I have them now

They definitely look like they could eb Ray Bans, but they have a pretty distinctive shape. Maybe Wayfarers had more than one style?

I agree with Dimitri...they certainly look like Cat-Eyes to me as opposed to the wayfarer shape.

I have to say, They may have worked for Felix then, so, good for a collection, but good luck sporting them nowadays and not getting mistaken for Paris Hilton.

For sure... I'm no Jack Lord, but those are pretty spot on... great find!

I found my dad's pair of rayban. Yes, they are "cat eyes". The lenses probably should be replaced and the one of the legs need a new screw (it's being held by twine). But they are Ray Bans and they are "cat eyes".
