      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.

                    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!

                          I agree, they look good.

                              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.

                                  @Paul9221 the Yves look good. They might appear a little bit big in the photos as the wide angle phone camera exaggerates the size. If you have any concerns, ask a friendly optician to look them over.

                                  That said, they look to be an oversized design from the pictures on the JMM website.

                                  I've got a pair of the JMM Amboise on their way to me at the moment. I'd been dithering about whether to get them or not, and they'd mostly sold out. Fortunately Net-A-Porter had them in stock, with a 10% discount for first time orders, and free returns. That'll do nicely… 😃

                                    @Paul9221 they look great. My everyday specs are JMM Dealan's and have been considering a set of sunglasses from them, completely agree on quality etc.

                                      I'm totally sold on these, now.  I was driving with them yesterday and it felt like I had such a larger field of view with these compared to my previous pair.  I just needed some friendly confirmation that I didn't look like a fool 😃

                                      Those Amboise look great.  Based on the pics you posted earlier, I imagine these will suit you.  Quite frankly, I think you could get away with just about any shape/size frame.

                                      Post some pics once they arrive!

                                        I had not seen the Dealan, those look great!

                                        It seems like some places let you sub out the lenses.  This being my first purchase, I just took the stock (my reseller didn't offer replacement lenses).  Since you're using these as corrective glasses (if I'm reading this right), did you just order the frames from a reseller of choice and take them into your optometrist to insert your corrective lenses?

                                          @Paul9221 I got them from my optometrist in Manchester (Seen) and they did the lenses for me. They do them for sunnys too  🙂
