Who’d have thought Ian Wright would become an eyewear trendsetter after\u00a0his long professional\u00a0footballer career?! \u00a0Well not us that’s for sure.<\/p>\n

Of course we’re talking about the dashing specs Wrighty was wearing last night in the commentary pre England vs France friendly game at Wembley Stadium, they attracted quite a bit of attention!<\/p>\n

But this is\u00a0not the first time his glasses have caused a stir, last year he even seemed confused himself as to why the general public were in such an uproar about them:<\/p>\n

what’s all the fuss about my glasses? I need glasses. Not doing contacts.<\/p>\n

Whilst there were plenty\u00a0of tweets flying around that tried to tease poor old Wrighty about them, we think he wears a pair of specs well!<\/p>\n

Last night in particular he was seen to be wearing a subtly chic square frame,\u00a0that he was wearing earlier on in the day in an interview on the BBC Radio 4 today programme:<\/p>\n

\"Ian_Wright_black_glasses\"<\/p>\n

Although we’re unable to tell which pair exactly Ian is wearing, we’re going to hazard a guess they could be the Ray-Ban RX5287<\/a><\/strong>. \u00a0 If you look at the shape and design both frames have a square and deep lens height with the arms going directly back from the top of the temple: \"Ian_Wright_Ray_Ban_Glasses?\" Of course, I couldn’t resist reflecting back on “armless glasses gate”, which also involved Ian and his spectacles. \u00a0Just a few weeks ago on another commentary show Ian shocked the nation by wearing similar square glasses, but with only one arm!<\/p>\n

Hilarity ensued, obviously, but the confusion and outcry was soon cleared up by the man himself when he tweeted to explain he sat on them before the show – I think we’ve all been there! \u00a0<\/p>\n

At least you can’t hate on the guy for giving us some laughs! \u00a0Anyway back to the topic in hand, his latest square frame glasses are a change to his usual circle style we saw him wearing for much of last year:<\/p>\n

\"Ian_Wright_Glasses\"<\/p>\n

Again Wrighty has gone for a classic design which is both understated but fashionable\u00a0– this guy knows his stylish glasses! \u00a0We think these ones above look similar to\u00a0our lovely Infinity P6185<\/a><\/strong> glasses:<\/p>\n

\"Round-Harry-Potter-Like-Glasses\"<\/p>\n

Or perhaps our Hallmark 6008<\/a><\/strong>, if you were to compare them to the glasses he wears in the above featured image; the same\u00a0clear round lens, but this time thin sleek arms.<\/p>\n

Is Ian Wright a fan of Harry Potter we hear you ask? \u00a0He could be, or he could just be a fan of wonderful specs:<\/p>\n

\"Harry-Potter-Glasses\"<\/p>\n

Whatever the specs, you can’t deny his specs have created a lot of attention, on some occasions his glasses have even been deemed more interesting than the football his commentating on!<\/p>\n

We love them though, but tell us which camp you’re in; does Wrighty suit specs, or not? \u00a0And Ian mate, if you’re reading get in touch! \u00a0We’d love to know if we’ve guessed the brands right.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
