                I heard through grapewine that pucells are ½ size smaller than chucks.  This isn't for sure though

                (Chucks are ½ size bigger than PF Flyers, I'm 9 in PF's and could have done 8,5 in Chucks)

                  Would it be possible to get these http://www.selfedge.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=72&products_id=941 fitted with prescription lenses. And if so, where?

                      Most half decent opticians.  Usually works out cheaper than buying the shitty frames they try and palm off on to you.  Me and Mme B have resolved to always get vintage or decent (Dita for e.g.) and take them in and get them installed with our prescription lenses.  In the UK the majority of the chains will not do this (making there money off the frames) but most good independent opticians will.

                          Completely agree. Buy the frames you want(online, vintage, etc.) and have a local Optician install some lenses. I had some prescription lenses put in some vintage Ray Bans and it was about $120 I think.

                          You might like the Freeways from Shuron. They're made a few hours away from you in Greenville, SC I believe and might be half the price of those Dry Bones frames.

                              Hey guys, noob question…which is the better item to soak jeans in? Bathtub or a bucket/smaller container? Also, does it really make a difference in what you soak them in? I'm kind of tired of using the bathtub due to the amount of water, other reasons, etc..

                              Thanks!

                                I would say it doesn't matter unless you are going for a true 'shrink to fit' and then you want to be sat wearing the jeans in the tub. Bucket works fine in my experience.

                                  I use a bucket mainly because it uses a lot less water. Not sure if that affects the denim, but I prefer to conserve water

                                  I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

                                    That was my concern G is that I would buy the frames and nobody would be able to do the work for me
