      Just a quick question, are some people buying Dita (and other brands like it) to just wear glasses or do they need glasses and just like the frames.  I'm just wondering because I wish I never had to wear glasses when I was younger (hilarious pics to follow in the near future).

        i think you´ll find answers from both sides mate…some are buying shit just to look good in it and some cuz they need it and cuz they wanna look good!
        after seeing Geo, El and Giles rocking a pair of ditas (and after i´ve busted my moscots the last night!)...i´m really thinking about a pair of dita´s...though i do know that i can´t afford a pair right now, so i have to wait i´m affraid!
        and yeah, i´m the one who buys glasses cuz he needs them!...

                i'm blind as a bat. i hate wearing glasses & so over compensate by getting the best looking frames i can find.  i only have dita based on glowing recommendations from forum members & the fact that i'm a sucker for made in Japan goods. other pair of glasses are moscot & i've had them so long i don't think they make the particular frame anymore

                  I need glasses to see, and Persol were worn by Steve McQueen, who was the coolest guy who ever lived. Steve made my brand choice for me  🙂

                    I use glasses 'cos I have to… I don't buy Dita or other high end brands, not just  because they're overpriced imho, but 'cos I haven't seen or tried single one that makes me feel good.

                    Glasses need to be bought so that you feel good in them, and that they look good on you.

                    Gazillion factors to be considered when you're buying a pair.  Size/shape of the lens, overall width are usually  first ones to look.

                    Lesser name brands often offer good value for your money. To me buying glasses may take up to 6 months, or it can happen in a´blink of an eye, 'cos I'm on a hunt for a "perfect" frames for my needs at that moment, and I have usually very strong visual idea what I want.

                    Don't know if this answered any Q's , maybe just kinda ranting....

                      So, I kind of need a summer blazer for work (got a few wool/tweed ones for norwegian autumn), looking for a blue/navy linen blazer that is of IH quality. Suggestions?

                        Which shirts fit most like the 27? My shirts, 41 no, 43 is closer, sbg a bit bigger, but close. I'd like a shirt at least as fitted as the 27.

                              Not daughter; son's girlfriend.  Ophelie, I think her name is.

                              Pure Blue Japan does some women's jeans, as does 3sixteen.  I think Self Edge may have a couple other options as well.  On Superfuture there's a thread called "Raw for women" that could be helpful.

                                            Anyone know of any sites or stores that carry jean hooks or hangers?  I'm looking for any ideas as well.
