Fight Club Tyler Durden T-shirts?

I don't have a pic anymore. Some years back there was a dude somewhere in Europe that had the motocross shirt in red and other stuff like the black sugar tank and maple leaf polo.

I thought that might be what you were talking about.
 
Danman you rock!

I've never seen those pics before. Great find! Thanks for sharing.

I have about 8 pairs of red pants. They are all vintage. A few different brands: Levy's Swagger, Sansabelt, Hogan, and SporThomson.
 
I agree, He owns many pairs of OPs. Silver Aeros on screen, gold in some of the candid shots.

Is yours double sided?

By the way, does anyone know were the op 523 old school gothic rose color or were they a specialty made color for the movie?
 
Soul, it is I who should be thanking you :cool. It's my pleasure to be able to contribute. Anything for the cause. I'm almost sure most, if not all images exposing fc gear have already been published, but if I do find any others, I will be sure to post them. As far as the shades go, it is my opinion that either OP did indeed have a color in that shade before or during the production of the film and supplied the eyewear for the film, or they created those shades for the production. Considering OP had to have learned they would be using three OP frames in the film, it is possible that they just created that rose shade and threw them on all three frames. Also, the fact that Pitt is seen at the beginning of the film in smoke colored OP-523, can support the case that they got the op's and later created the rose color for each frame. Now, when the film premiered in 99, op either kept producing the frame with rose colored lenses, or people who had watched the film and learned they were op's requested that op make their frames in the same color from the film, which was probably readily available. Whatever the case maybe, at some point, OP stopped making the exact rose color tint that was used in the film. Now, I'll tell you that when I purchased my first op's in april or may of 2001, I contacted op and asked them if they could make the lenses the exact color worn in the film. What they gave me was a color they called CORAL. They were way way closer to the screen accurate tint then tangerine or blood red. I swear they were almost identical to the film, but the film was just a deeper red.

black sugar, did you have the color custom made or did you purchase them from op in 90's or ebay?

I'm starting to think that since op's are made in Japan, that they have never stopped manufacturing OP-523 in Japan, and that's why there are still so many floating around with Tangerine lenses.
 
lol that black sugar tank is crazy.. I don't know how you'll wear that in public. AWESOME for wearing in a movie or video and in a photoshoot.
 
When paper street shades first came out, they gave me a free pair in exchange for giving them good reviews and recommending their product to other fc enthusiasts.Now I've seen them on ebay sell for $400. lol
 
I just found it on my computer, I didn't think I still had it. I was talking to this guy about his collection, I think he said that his leaf jacket is the actual one worn by Pitt.

Awesome! Thanks man.
Yea I know they made a couple of those jackets for the film too

Thing is do PSS have any markings or identification? I mean how can you tell it is a PSS and not another replica?

My 523 has the same color lenses, I definitely own them.

Care to post a pic? Off face and on face?
