Eyeglasses / Sunglasses Discussion

Anyone have experience with Roka's Rory or Bookers?

Looking at replacing my eyeglass frames, and was considering the Rory or Bookers in tortoise shell. I've had a clear set of wayfarers for awhile and want to try to switch it up.

Picked up the Rory sunglasses in Tortoise with Ranger Green polarized lenses. Figure I could get away running with them and casual use. How they fit and feel may sway my opinion, but I also enjoy how clean the Bookers are along the side.

I'm probably going to get these glasses

Somewhat of an x-post. Don't want to ugly up the Rivet and Hide thread too much. Thanks a lot @Danny RnH

Thanks a lot @Chap  if it weren't for you I never would have seen them.

These are great guys… when travelling happens again visiting a city with a purveyor of quality eyewear will be a priority. I’m not secure enough in my ability to pick a suitable pair from a website.

I got the lenses in my frames and I love them. The nice thing about them is the frames are so thick that they can hold a thicker lens so I was able to get the old fashioned poly-carbonate for much better clarity.

Man, I just dropped some serious dough on some JMM sunglasses.  You guys SUCK!

[LewisStonehouse]

Great decision @Paul9221 - JMM are the nuts

So I've been rockin' a pair of Maui Jims for about 10 years.  I wanted to get something a little bit bigger, because I've got a sizeable forehead and a beard, so I wanted something that didn't accentuate my gargantuan noggin'.

I went with these JMM Yves.  Such amazing build quality.  The packaging.  Everything.  Just outstanding.

I think they're fantastic, but they're bigger than I'm used to so I just want to make sure they don't look like those oversized party glasses.  Thoughts?

Two more, slightly more light:

Thanks!

They look great on you @Paul9221 

[JDelage]

I agree, they look good.

[Paul9221]

Thanks, gents!  I really appreciate your input!

Looks killer @Paul9221 !

I was eyeing a pair of Yves recently too. I’ve been sporting Torinos as prescription eyeglasses and a pair of Enzos as sunnies. The heft of JMM frames takes some getting used to and I had to have my pairs adjusted a couple times to get them to comfortably fit my big head.

Rock on, man!  I was eyeing the Torinos, too!  Now I gotta find some of your posts to see how they look on ya

The fit is extremely comfortable for me, but I've only had to wear them for an hour straight so far.  I'm really happy with them and, while I hope I don't have to buy another pair for a while, I would absolutely get another pair of JMMs in the future.
