    Living in LA I have the luxury of 20+ opticians/retailers so I will only purchase in store.

      Check out Frederiksberg Optik at Gammel Kongevej 92, 1850 Frederiksberg. They have a good selection in there to check out.

        Biggest mistake I ever made was going into that store last year. I was on holiday with the family in Copenhagen and visited the store. The missus spotted the price of JMM's and I was swiftly banned from buying a pair. No way round this now, just got to bite the bullet and take the flack if I buy a pair. Molino 55 seem to work well for me.

          @Inorganic ahh right. I recently bought a pair from dover street market while in Japan. didn't see the model on JMM's website at all and was skeptical, but I guess dover street market is legit enough..

            @JerkStore said in Jacques Marie Mage (JMM) - Sunglasses and Frames…:

            Got the Lankaster back with my rx lenses. Really like this pair. Bonus pic of my wife’s Picabia.

            Do you wear the Lankaster just as sunglasses or as "normal" glasses?

            I was thinking about getting glasses with darker lenses like sunglasses to wear them.
            But I'm not sure, how practical that is.

            Perhaps there are glasses that are not as dark as those of sunglasses.

              @gakugeidg I wear them as in the pic above, sunglasses. I have the Mantua as my opticals (not on JMM website, but on optician sites).

                @JerkStore I see.
                Thanks for the reply.

                Any experience with wearing sunglasses all day like normal glasses?
                Or possibly with lenses in between, like medium dark?

                  @gakugeidg if i may hop on this one then i would advise self tinting glasses which will transfer dark when they get in contact with UV. In the long run it isn’t that good to wear sunglasses 24/7

                    @gakugeidg If you want to look like Jack Nicholson, it'll work fine. You can get transitions, but they won't be dark in the light.

                    I would get a very light sunglass lens if you want to go for that look.

                      I’ve spent months lurking in this thread and I’ve finally been pushed over the edge - a pair of Torinos are on their way to me now!

                          Everyone blames me for something.

                          Could be anything.

                          Bottom line God gave me style.

                                  @JerkStore I actually got a pair of lenses made with gradient tinted lenses in green. I think, they go from 30% down to 10%. But you can hardly see the colour, neither from the outside nor from wearing them.
                                  So I might need to get them gradient from say 50% to 30% or all in 30%. Not sure.
                                  Perhaps grey or brown are better choices.

                                  The reason I'm looking for some lenses like that is to make the quite substantial acetate frame less conspicuous.
                                  I find with sunglasses for example heavier frames are easier to wear than with transparent lenses.

                                    @gakugeidg Rodenstock offer the Colormatic 3Sun lenses in transitions that got from about 50% opacity to 90% in bright light.

                                    I was looking at getting a pair of the Papa Nui Coral Cruisers with these lenses fitted, but my prescription would be tricky in the frame.

                                          Every 4 months or so I like to take these silver wipes from Amazon to the accents on my glasses, it’s pretty crazy how much shinier it is after giving them a wipe down and polish. In both pics I only polished the right side so you can see the difference.
