So with that being said it makes the most sense for us to start there on our journey through Tom's back catalogue of frames.

The Marvel series tells the story of Loki, a well-known villain, as he tries to escape capture by The Avengers. He is eventually caught by the Time Variance Authority and must go on a mission to fix various timeline issues caused by different antagonists.

In one sequence, it's revealed that Loki was D.B. Cooper, the enigmatic man who hijacked a plane from Portland to Seattle on November 24, 1971 and demanded $200,000 before parachuting out of the aircraft with the cash. The mystery remains unsolved to this day. Check out this rather odd scene here. But most importantly he is seen sporting rather dashing sunglasses.

 

These are produced by American Optical and the frame name is Saratoga.

Now moving on to the frames we've seen Tom wearing most often in his personal life. Of recent years Tom has rarely been seen without his spectacles.

Tom is most often seen sporting a rectangular glasses frame, and from our research, there is a distinctive 'split' in the temple material which gave us the answer as to who produces these frames.

 

Mykita is a glasses frame manufacturer based in Berlin, Germany. Founded in 2003, the company has become known for its innovative and stylish eyewear designs. Celebrities such as Tom Hiddleston and Daniel Craig have become known as fans of the brand.

What makes Mykita unique is that they manufacture their own glasses frames in their own factory in Germany. This allows them to have complete control over the quality of their products, and ensures that customers are getting the best possible product. Additionally, this also allows Mykita to be very creative with their designs, as they are not restricted by what is available on the market.

The frame shown here worn by Tom Hiddleston is from their 3d printed collection named MYLON. And the version shown here is in Ebony brown and is the Triton frame design.

3D printed glasses frames are a relatively new trend in the eyewear industry. They are made with a special type of plastic that is heated until it is liquid, and then forced through a fine nozzle to create the desired shape. This makes them very lightweight and customizable, as any design can be printed on to the frame.

 

Many brands have started to experiment with 3D printing, and some even offer custom made glasses frames. They can be more expensive than traditional frames, but the benefits outweigh the cost for many people. 3D printed frames are often more comfortable to wear, and can be adjusted to fit anyone's face perfectly.
