      Yeh, to be fair I'm not struck on them. Great quality for £12, but a little too retro for my liking.

      Guess I'll just save up for some Dita Statesman  🙂

              just bought a pair of these, less than 1/2 price, pretty sure I'm going to look like a d*ck in them, but great lenses

                      Did not realize prior to trying them on this weekend how expensive some of the Dita sunglasses can get. Wow! Did like some of the more subdued pairs.

                        finally, after my moscot lemtosh broke apart and after several months of searching for the right pair, I've came across the right pair of glasses for me:

                        brand: Garrett Leight California
                        model: Kinney
                        size: 49o21

                        after a few days of wearing them, I only can say that they're superb and perfect for me. super well crafted, super light and you don't have that "heavy feeling", like when wearing thicker and heavier frames. all in all they're super comfortable to wear…

                        and to call it day,I also went for some new sunnies.

                        brand: Moscot
                        model: Lemtosh Sun - black/crystal
                        size: 49o21

                          Nice choice! Earlier this year I looked long and hard at a ton of specs. Ended up coming down to the GL Kinney or the GL Venezia. Bought the Venezia because they worked better for my face. The blonde fade is done really well on these.

                          https://www.eyegoodies.com/Garrett-Leight-Venezia-Blonde-Tortoise-Fade-pr-19093.html

                          Surprised you didn't buy the GL clip on sunglasses. I bought them for mine, and they work great!

                            well tbh @Chiba J. I've first spotted the moscot sunnies and just had to get those…then, when going into the store to pay for them, I've seen a shitload of other brands,models and frames I just had to get 🙂 so after trying on multiple pairs, the GL Kinney was the one I've felt most comfortable with, which is why I've bought.
                            another 30mins later, they were handed out to me incl. the presciption lenses...all around the service was A+

                              I see. Those Moscots look great. And in the future you still would have the option of grabbing the clips for the Kinney. I really like the fact that the clips are foldable and they give you a nice case. Makes it very easy to carry them around just in case.

                              On second look, it was actually the Milwood that I was looking at, not the Kinney….

                                    When I was in Japan in December with @Tempvs , we visited the Shibuya branch of:

                                    http://hakusan-megane.co.jp/shop/

                                    Which is no more than 200yards from our Shibuya office.

                                    I couldn't help myself and with a "little" encouragement from @Tempvs , I came out with 2 pairs….

                                    Just got them back from the optician.....

                                      Those are sexy specs.

                                      How about a fit pic?

                                            Thank you.  The place was typically Japanesly (sic) brilliant and over the top.  And they took about 15 minutes per pair shaping the frames for the perfect fit… I'm def going back with @Madame Buttonfly next time we are there together….(and I'll get some of these........http://hakusan-megane.co.jp/flip-up-frontround-classic-type/ or these http://hakusan-megane.co.jp/clip glam-round/)
