this prevents the temple wobble and loosening that plague simpler two- or three-barrel hinges after daily use.","over_50_step_acetate_polishing":"The cellulose acetate front and temples are cut from thick sheets and then hand-polished in a sequence of over 50 manual operations — including tumbling in wood chips, pumice buffing, and a final waxing — yielding a deep, glass-like luster and a warm, smooth feel that injection-molded plastics cannot replicate."}},"competitive_comparison":{"title":"How the Holt compares to similar Tom Ford frames","entries":{"ray_ban_round_metal_acetate_vs_wire":"The Ray-Ban Round Metal (RB3447) translates the same circular silhouette through lightweight wire and a thin profile, whereas the Holt uses a thick acetate front that adds visual weight and a more deliberate material presence — the Holt's 145mm acetate temples also bring greater long-term dimensional stability than the slender metal arms on the Ray-Ban, suiting daily handling across multiple seasons.","oliver_peoples_vintage_modern_aesthetic":"Oliver Peoples builds its identity on 1960s–70s eyewear cues — filigree core wires, keyhole bridges, engraving — while the Holt eliminates front face detailing entirely, positioning the T-plate at the temple as the sole metallic accent; choosing the Holt over an Oliver Peoples round frame means opting for a more streamlined, early-2000s minimalist luxury presence that continues the design language Tom Ford established during his tenure at Gucci.","persol_meflecto_comparative_temple_comfort":"Persol sunglasses incorporate the patented Meflecto temple cushion, a built-in spring-loading system that adapts to head width and gives a dynamic, self-adjusting fit; the Holt instead relies on fixed acetate temples that mold slowly to heat and wear, providing a more structured, non-arctuating feel — this distinction makes the Holt the right alternative for someone who dislikes the slight give of Meflecto arms and prefers the solid, break-in character of a one-piece acetate temple.","485_cad_entry_point_price_in_luxury_acetate":"Priced at 485 CAD, the Holt lands below many luxury acetate frames from Dior or Saint Laurent that breach 600 CAD, while sitting above the 200–300 CAD band of mid-tier brands like Ray-Ban or Warby Parker — it functions as the gateway Tom Ford frame, delivering the brand's full material and manufacturing hallmarks (Italian acetate, T-plate branding, velvet case) without the premium for polarized or photochromic lens options.","raffa_prescott_miles_the_round_square_hybrid":"The Holt hybridizes Tom Ford's round and square design languages — while the Raffa and Prescott are true circles and the Miles is a pure square, the Holt squares off the circle to create a softened geometric that reads as both approachable and sharp, giving buyers a silhouette that stands apart from both the purely circular and the aggressively angular ends of the brand's lineup.","standard_tint_vs_gradient_polarized_upgrades":"Tom Ford frequently offers its frames in polarized or photochromic lens variations that add $50–100 to the price, but the Holt commits to a uniform tint, keeping the cost at the 485 CAD baseline and avoiding the tonal fade of a gradient or the reflective haze of a polarized lens — for a buyer who wants a classic, uninterrupted dark lens with no color shift, the Holt's standard tint is the purest expression of the Tom Ford sunglass experience.","frame_sizing_50_20_145_as_tom_ford_s_male_medium":"The Holt runs a 50mm eye width and 145mm temple — Tom Ford's benchmark male medium — sidestepping both the 47mm women's sizing and the 53mm+ oversized dimensions found in models like the larger Fausto variants, so the Holt fits as a universal, no-guesswork starting point that avoids looking either too delicate or editorially spacious."}}}},"handle":"holt-round-sunglasses-21259-26102","storefront_path":"/en/men-designer/accessories/sunglasses/holt-round-sunglasses--21259-26102","storefront_url":"https://ai.simons.ca/en/men-designer/accessories/sunglasses/holt-round-sunglasses--21259-26102"}}
