Jacques Marie Mage (JMM) - Sunglasses and Frames…

[popvulture]

I was wondering what the Velvets frames would look like — bout what I expected! V rad.

Those are stunners as well… JMM crushes. Sorry to hear that, @Graeme. Would it be too costly to have someone elsewhere in the world (say, the United States) buy them on your behalf and ship them over?

Thanks

@henry_david
I will go for something like this

[Graeme]

@henry_david I'm sure that the Fatale will be carried by someone who ships internationally, be it Twelvesixtynine, Framed Ewe, Matches Fashion, or Mr Porter. There are two stockists in Melbourne, so there's a good chance that one of them will get them in.

Worst case, I've got friends in SF and Texas, and I'm sure that I can get one of them to re-ship a pair for me.

@Graeme:

I'm liking the look of the Jacques Marie Mage Fatale

Graeme, for a minute, my wallet about cursed you. The Fatale is fantastic !

Lovely as they are, I generally prefer a more rounded shape. But, realistically, anything metal(silver) framed, and remotely close to oval in shape is fair game. Specs aren't anywhere close, though. More eye, less bridge, and much more temple would be required. Probably for the best, anyway. The Amboise are satisfying that look, and I've been hunting for an acetate frame that suits me. I've been eyeing the Plaza, and Harrison(burgundy).

A really great tribute to Nico. Love the VU so much.

I hope JMM does a tribute to Mark Lanegan. He had great taste in specs and is worthy.

@Graeme:

Also take a look at the Clyde, which is a similar shape, but a wrap around design. (The Donovan might be too, but I haven't seen it.)

I have a pair of Happy Hour heart shaped glasses in the same colorway

[popvulture]

Not gonna lie — first thought was "holy shit I'm gonna need more." These things are unbelievable.

[henry_david]

They look GREAT on you, @popvulture  That's much how I felt when I got mine. Such a lovely, substantial pair of sunglasses that fit on my head better than anything I've had before.

[popvulture]

Thanks man!!! And yeah dude they really feel wild as hell, SO hefty yet extremely comfortable. I'm in love.

Looks like a great fit @popvulture!

I picked up another pair of Hemmings from these folks in NYC and they've got an amazing selection and more in stock than about anywhere else I've looked:

Very nice.  That’s precisely what I have on my radar.  I do wish they had some more lens colors for the black though.

[popvulture]

Thanks y'all!

@Matt these are pretty hard to find, it seems. I looooove the lens color — not 53, but I will say that after trying the 53s, I realize a regular Dealan probably would've been fine for me. The 53s are pretty damn wide.

I love the Tropics.  These alas are not in my immediate future.  I’ll be spending a lot on 20th anni swag in the fall so I’m in saving mode now.

[popvulture]

Haha fair! I'm definitely bracketing for some IH purchases at the moment. Bibs and UHF, then yeah who knows what walletary torture the fall will bring

Lost sunglasses or misplaced them - check
Backup pair have a cracked lens - check
Not a ‘high-end’ sunglasses wearer - check
Consult the forum sunglasses thread  - check

What the feck just happened?  ??? I glossed over this thread and all the recent activity. Now the enablers have taken over and I’m convinced JMM’s are the only sunglasses that will do.

Have no idea if they’ll work out. Anticipation is building  :'(. Delivery happening Saturday(?) // Monday(?)

[sabergirl]

What’d you get? You’re going to be pleased [emoji6]
