While it won't be a perfect match, it looks like he just wears a simple pair
of Windsor oval full rims, with nosepads.

I tried on a pair almost identical to these, at Sears Optical, just the
other day.  I think they were Ralph Lauren branded.

Let me see if I can find something similar at one of the online shops:

This is close, but the bridge is a little flatter.  The arms meet at the
right point on the side of the oval.

These are a little bit closer because of the bridge design, but the arms
attach at a slightly different point.

I checked some of the other sites (EBD, G4U, and Coastal) and didn't find a
better match than these...but they have hundreds of frames, so it's hard to
do a comprehensive search.
