Jacques Marie Mage (JMM) - Sunglasses and Frames…

[Matt]

I was looking at BLBs yesterday…

I just bought a pair of Dita Haliod frames that I'll post some pics of soon. I've also been considering getting some JMMs. The frames do look a bit thick, do any of you find them too heavy for everyday wear?

[Giles]

Not me….They fit so well.....

[Bums_Fan]

Nor do I.  As Giles said, they fit so well that the heaviness is not noticeable.

I don’t either, I’ve had a few pairs of Dita’s and I’ve recently picked up my molino 55s and they are perfect for daily wear. My ditas were a lot less comfortable because of the metallic Nose pads. They would bother be from time to time.

But I also wear 25oz denim most of the winter. So take that for what it’s worth [emoji23]

I also wear they every day @vegan_crabcakes. Very well-balanced and comfortable! See if you have a retailer that carries them near you to try the heft out for yourself.

I find that they're not too heavy as sun glasses, but they can be a tad heavy as reading glasses. Not sure why that is. When I wear sunglasses, I'm fairly active so that might explain this.

My recently acquired Moscots hurt my nose after long wears. I got them with the intention of reducing my contact wear.

When I got my JMMs, they were so comfortable that I was tempted to put optical lenses in them. But I love the thick CR-39 lenses so much I just can't do it.

So now I am fighting the urge to return to the JMM dealer for some optical frames.

Pray for me.

If you’re in pain then there’s no choice really.  If you haven’t got your health then what have you got?

[mclaincausey]

@Matt makes a well-reasoned argument

Anyone see the new Eclipse combo JMM dropped today? I want those Mollinos!

I have now been tempted to get a pair as everyday glasses/ frames

[Giles]

Me too….....

[louisbosco]

sadly. they don't have stockist in Singapore. the only gripe I have, is not being able to try them on currently, which is a must for me when it comes to frames/glasses..

I absolutely loved listening to Jerome on the Dean Delray Podcast…..

I just bookmarked it for a listen tomorrow during the work day. I really liked the pod with Dean and Josh, too.

[popvulture]

Damn, I'm absolutely gonna have to check that out. I love Dean.

Also, I'm basically just bracing for when JMM has a black Dealan frame available with just the dots on the side (not the visible metal stem inside like the Eclipse) and a lens color I like. Heaven help me.

I listened to it last night on a 12 hr drive home, posted it as soon as I started listening. It was a real treat! Also got me thinking on another pair lol …

I loved hearing his connections starting out with other brands and how the story came to be. Pretty cool how they didn’t do much marketing or gifting frames. Let the product speak for itself.

[Matt]

A little gifting wouldn’t hurt…
