Eyeglasses / Sunglasses Discussion

[madmonday]

if they didn't have the brnd name going down the side i would be a fan of frogskins as well.  only stuff from the 80s & 90s that i love with the brnd name all over are classic polo ralph lauren pieces.

like them monday, thanks for posting…

Look good Seul. The glass of white wine is fitting with the case.

[Seul]

They're absolutely crazy and I don't think they'd look good on anyone but me… Love is in the air... (And thanks once again, L!..)

I'll just go ahead and make this easy for you.

The original
http://www.shuron.com/ronsir_zyl.htm

Made in USA
Super solid and cheap.

And get the clip on sunglasses as well.

[Finn666]

thanks a lot urb!…

[injunjack]

Shurons are def nice, but for me the lens is too big. If you can live with lens that big, go for it. (big lenses to me = 80's, no good )

Check Na Und?,  53F811, Design by Marion Ramm, made in Germany. About same price range as Shurons

Link to a german retailer earlier in this thread

even better price than first link

[Finn666]

thanks a lot for the hint IJ…def.taking them into consideration mate!

[injunjack]

Rafa, I've been wearing these since beg. of March. No issues so far, and these are pretty damn comfy to wear.

Some Clip- ons would be cool like Ronsirs…Any hints on those?

[emceeQ]

Didn't realize Shuron's had clip ons.  Considering those or a pair of Persol's for my next frame.  Been dealing with a broken frame for a few months now…

[GimpKid]

Anyone have a pair of the Persol 714s or have any opinions on them? I have my eye on the Steve Mcqueen edition.

Edit: Here's a pic.

[Simon]

Yep, I've got the Steve McQueen edition, go back one page and you'll see the pic. Beautiful glasses but quite large!

[GimpKid]

Oh dang, can't believe I missed that. The size is what concerns me the most, but I think I like them on the bigger side just for something different. I like the way they fit you, for sure.

I can't find them anywhere online at a retailer so I'm currently looking at eBay. Hopefully I can find something good.

Thanks Simon.

Those Persol McQueen editions are cool for obvious reasons but i would definitely not order a pair online, they look good on about 1% of people that try them on.  It's a unique shape and only works for some people. 
If you can spring for Dita you should do it, the quality is amazing on their frames, both Giles and i now have multiple pairs which we love.

[Giles]

I saw a dude on the japanese metro wearing a pair of McQueens, he looked supercool, but shit they were large…..

I guess I need to move mine on then!?

[GimpKid]

I actually called around and found a place semi-local that has a pair of the McQueens. I'll go have a look.

As far as I know, no one local sells Dita, which blows. I tried on a pair when I was in La Jolla last summer. I liked them, but I'd like to see more.

I may go for a non-McQueen Persol. I like the tortoise frames they have and they're different from all my other pairs.
