Eyeglasses / Sunglasses Discussion

[twin]

The glasses are just perfect for you fits your face well Graeme.

On question: I never ever wore glasses or sunglasses. But I really like the look and I think I want some simple sunglasses. Are Raybans a good start or 100% crap?

[rocket]

@JCMx800 I would skip them, quality is OKish at max, but in the end it is mass-produced, every kid is running around in it, stuff…

what style are you looking for? budget?

as always best guess is to catch the gf and try on some pairs to get a idea what works for you or not, shape wise and go from there...

[JCMx800]

@rocket I like it simple, clean and black. I look for something wayfarer-ish, I saw some nice IC Berlin hipster frames, and I like @davito RMC frame
Budget, well…

[davito]

I wear glasses with strong correction since my early childhood and my RMC frame is the best i ever had as i need strong frame for my bad eyes, only can recommend it if you need it for correction. Well worth the money
@JCMx800

[rocket]

they are def quality

for the IC Berlin, these maybe?

IC berlin Nameless 2012 here

[JCMx800]

@rocket you can't show me something like that…

[rocket]

@JCMx800 even better is that I have a brand new pair here, that could be shipped today to you, let me know  ::)

ooooooookay guys…i need new glasses!

searching for Dita Statesman, Moscot Lemtosh or any other recommendations! who knows where to grab stuff like this? maybe someone even has a pair for sale?...

let me know what you think gents and ladies!

[mclaincausey]

I can recommend Tom Davies, I have a pair of their spectacles that are exquisite. Good luck on your adventure!

[Snowy]

I was looking through here the other day as I have a feeling my time is coming. Dita and Moscot came to the top of my list. Global Spec somewhere on there, but couldn't find any I liked the look of….

[Finn666]

would love to go with the Dita Statesman, but i don't have the possibility to try it on somewhere and i not want to go through the hustle of shipping back and forth! -.- @Snowy

[Snowy]

Oliver People's is the other one that comes to mind. I'd probably end up with the same model glasses as my sunnies tho would annoy me no end.

[Finn666]

which ones are you sorting again?

[Giles]

T.A.R.T.  Got to look at those too…...

@Finn666:

I wear the Sheldrake's if that was to me..

Oliver Peoples is a Luxoticca brand now. I guess that's OK but it grosses me out. Barton Pereira is what OP used to be.

[Clint_D]

Oliver Peoples are made by Luxottica so they're a no go for me.  I'm still a huge fan of Cutler and Gross, I've got a few pairs which are at least 5-6 years old and still rock solid and then my 3 pairs of Dita (2x Statesman, 1x Senator) which I've been very pleased with.  I really like the TART Opticals like G mentioned but I have never been able to find any large enough for my head.

[Giles]

Hmmm, my TART Arnels and FDR's sit pretty similar to my Statesman….
