Jacques Marie Mage (JMM) - Sunglasses and Frames…
-
@Mizmazzle when i started to wear my Taos for a longer stint first they were heavy and i felt a little pressure around my ears. But after a while that was gone or i got used to it. I can wear then easily for a few hours without any hassle. Does it hurts? Do you feel pressure? Or are they sliding due the heaviness?

@Mizmazzle I've got a pair of the ICU. They've got a titanium frame with a small aperture for the lens, and they weigh nothing.
It probably depends on what style you use.

New prescription lenses for the newly called Mo Enzo's and the Juliens. Yes, I'm the lost brother of @Daniel-San

Good advice everyone. I haven’t got the new frames yet. They should arrive on Saturday. I think they will be great. Was just sort of wondering what some of you “all day” glasses wearers thought. Seems I’ll be joining your ranks soon!! Updates to come!!
@spaniarddh you've got a great face for those frames brother!! Perfect fit!!
In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

@Mizmazzle I've got the perciers from JMM as glasses. they aren't as bulky as their sunnies counterparts, JMM does optical frames as well, maybe good to have a look at those..

@louisbosco I’ve got the smaller Molino frames headed my way. I already have the larger 55s as sunnies with prescription lenses. When I bought the new smaller Molinos they were described as an optical version with clear lenses. Fingers crossed. I’ve never worn glasses all day. This is new territory for me.

That was a good point raised about about getting used to glasses too. Your skin will adapt a bit, though I think the skin on the sides of your nose is extraordinarily thin. You may just have to live with marks on your nose, but should not have to live with discomfort.

@spaniarddh
see PM mate -
im a little late to the discussion regarding rx / all day comfort with their acetate frames. Getting a good adjustment is key and not all opticians are equal. I've not found anyone local to me that does a great job so every time I travel to work to Denver, I go see Scot at Queen City. He's super nice and does a great job. Went to see him twice last week when I was in town to adjust some taos that are much better now.
What I'll say about the JMM acetate frames and comfort is that it's nearly impossible to predict how a frame will sit or be comfortable. My largest frames (yves) are actually the most comfortable and they feel the lightest on my nose and ears. Conversely, the smallest frames I own (taos) have been the most problematic to get a good fit. Unfortunately, you just gotta wear them straight for at least a few hours imo to understand if they'll be comfortable or not.
Thankfully, I dont "need" rx's all day, so I try to remember to take them off during lunch to give things a break for a bit which helps comfort a lot in the afternoon. If I really wanted something JMM and super ultra comfortable, I'd look to one of their mixed acetate/titaniums like the crevel or williams.
