These are the hard to find vintage originals made in Austria in the early 80's, and the same type Crockett and Tubbs both wore.

Anything that I like, wether it has to do with "Miami Vice", or a simple pair of heels, is either in your possession or out of the country. And in both cases, completely out of my reach.:cry:

The Wayfarers were the best, hands down in my opinion and as something of curiosity....On the #3 post ...The carreras from season one I saw at a upper chain sunglasses shop that were pretty close to the ones in the post. Earlier thgis year I saw these...Kinda cool the past is now, again the present...I' love to pick-up a pair of Wayfarers and have my perscription ground into a pair...Too cool. Love the sunglass collection COOP! You ROCK, Pal...Once again, I'm sooo envious....I say this with a smile..Mike

What model are the Ray Bans that DJ wears at the beginning of the season 4 finale (the black ones)? The look smaller than the 5024's in the size of the lenses. Thanks![ATTACH=CONFIG]3101[/ATTACH]

Well, if it looks smaller than the large 5024's, it's because Crockett wore Med. 5022's. His frames are med. 50mm. Not sure if they made the frames smaller than that in the 80's (in Europe, they do currently have small 47mm). Large frames are 54mm.On page one of this thread, I made an error which I just corrected. I stated that the lenses Crockett wore 5024's. He didn't. He absolutely wore 5022's.Sorry if it caused any confusion.-COOP
