I agree with that assessment, although I have never owned any Dita. I believe G has both, so perhaps he could give his opinion?

What is it that makes them next level G? I'm genuinely interested for my next pair of frames.

Also, would these make me look like an escaped mental patient?
Also, speaking as someone who know nothing about Dita frames, are these Dita frames?

One of the simple things is the shape of the arms, they are almost impossible (at least for me) so shake off or have slip down my nose. The hinges are brilliant. The overall quality of craftsmanship is more apparent on my Statesman than my Ramblers, but this is because the construction and materials are more complex. I needed my Statesman tweaked recently and went into "The Eye Company" in Wardour Street, I could have walked out with a dozen pairs, there is something about the designs that I really really love. (And they are made in Japan)
Play with mine when you are here….

They do indeed look awesome, and I will take a look at yours when we're visiting if thats ok. Now to take a look at stockists.

At least no-one could complain about false advertising

Im partial to Mykita or Walter Proksch frames. really light weight, and have no screws to come loose.

I have a bunch of friends getting into Warby Parker. They send you a box with the five frames you pick out. You try them on, pick 'em out, then let them know your prescription. They're only $95. I've been thinking about getting a pair or two as mine are starting to wear out. Anybody had any luck with them?

I think Urbs has or had a pair. A guy on StyleForum said the quality is pretty weak, but for $95 I guess we can't complain.
Na. I have Shuron Ronsirs, made in USA.

http://www.shuron.com/ronsir_zyl.htmWarby Parker are stylish cheap made in china glasses. I've never owed a pair but have seen some before, not great. If you're on a budget and don't want to go to Walmart, then get Warby Parker.
Another cheap alt

Ah-ha. Too good to be true. IH has changed my appreciation for quality. I can't hardly bring myself to settle for cheap Chinese goods. No matter how inexpensive, it still feels like a rip off. I was shopping with my wife and I couldn't handle how poorly made some expensive designer gear was.
