In the UK, Specsavers fitted my lenses in my vintage Persols for £62.

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've never ordered a pair of glasses that weren't from my eye Dr. but need some new ones soon
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.
That was my concern G is that I would buy the frames and nobody would be able to do the work for me

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.

BE is for Belgium so whatever it is, it's on it's way to you.

Oh the age old question of what an "Adpis" is….
I googled and saw " 'Adpis' is the indonesian word for 'Advice' "
So, I guess they are asking some Belgians for advice.

Still sounds like it's on it's way to you which is the best part.

Chop a pair of 803 or 814 they make great shorts just upsize them

You didn't ruin them. They may have stretched a bit, but just wear them! I always hang my pants (and other things) from the heaviest part. If you want to avoid stretching your inseam hang from the top block
Yeah, I dont really know why I hung them from the hem. I wasn't thinking right cause I thought it'd dry faster lol
yeah, total dumbass, overthought moment haha. But I looked at the hem and it didn't seem to really have stretched in one particular area. Maybe very minimal but not really noticeable. I've read people hang from the hem after a wash or soakand some frown upon it. I just want to make sure I didn't ruin the jean as a whole :-\
