Does anyone know what model sunglasses Jet Li wears in the movie War?

Many people looking for these sunglasses. Unconfirmed speculation is they are Cartier.

They are nice and have some unique characteristics. I especially like the substantially weighted frame. The way the top of the lenses slope down as they approach the nose works well on Jet's face.

There is a lot of Serengeti in them. Styles like the Serengeti Lamone S-Flex Sunglasses, Serengeti Pergusa Aviator Sunglasses and Serengeti Lazio Sunglasses come to mind.

Ray-Ban has Aviators like this in their Ray Ban Highstreet Family of Sunglasses. See the Ray Ban Aviator Highstreet RB3309 Sunglasses and the Ray Ban Aviator Highstreet RB3322 Sunglasses.

Brooks Brothers has the Brooks Brothers BB390S Sunglasses and the Brooks Brothers BB417S Sunglasses.

Let us know if make a match.

Thanks for the info. I went ahead and looked on the Cartier site and found these:

Not the same, but pretty close. I never realized sun glasses could be so expensive. Shocked I guess I'll have a look through the links you sent me and try to find something close. Thanks again. Smile

Excellent find!

If I were Jet Li, I wouldn't want to risk such expensive sunglasses in case I got into a fight!

It is a popular style and if you pick a different brand the sunglasses will have the same good looks.
