@VoodooRay
had a closer look this morning and yes you’re right. guess that’s why they come in the bigger box . They are very comfortable to wear , very cool

[Inorganic]

@SourPower yo - what model is the top pair in this pile of gems?

[SourPower]

@Inorganic Fontainebleau in "Aubergine"

[Inorganic]

@SourPower very nice...thanks

Does anyone have any on-face photos of a pair of JMM in the colorway "Smoke fade"? Can't find almost any example...

Wish I could have snagged the beige 2 but was able to snag the eclipse 2 in the rereleased quentins. @Kasi you wear the orignal ones much?

I’ll try to send tomorrow. I have Molino smoke fade and i love them. If you have gray hair(s) like I do, they fit perfectly.

@JerkStore Thanks! I ordered a pair and received them today (Ichikawa in Smoke fade). I don't really like how they look on me though since I have brown hair and something about them looks off on me. I think full transparent ones (beige) could look better on me, but I'm not sure and they're sold out in the EU as far as I know.

@pechelman Thanks - yeah I've seen those photos as well, but the (I'll try to put it as respectfully as I can here) models' hairstyles and the quality of the photos (too close makes JMMs look way bigger on the face than they already are) didn't give me a good idea on how they would look on me with my.... hair

[sabergirl]

Well, you could post a pic of you wearing them, and we can help you decide?

[JerkStore]

Here are my Molino in smoke fade. But it’s kind of hard to see. They look better the more charcoal your complexion is (like mine).

[pechelman]

How do they look outside? To me it's like the lenses are too dark making them present a little more harshly on your skin tone. The frames I think suit you well.

[JerkStore]

@pechelman

These are prescription and my eye guy always makes my lenses super dark so no one knows where Im looking. It’s a preference and I like it.

[pechelman]

Personally, I just think it's the cooler lens color, exacerbated by your preferred opacity, against your warmer? skin that might be throwing you for a loop. If those were identical opacity in a dark green or brown I bet you might feel different.

[sabergirl]

Looks good to me! The frame suits you, and if the lenses are the way you like em, I say it’s a keeper

[pechelman]

Speaking of dark sunglasses, should I keep these as sunglasses or convert to opticals with transition lenses?

[Daniel San]

@pechelman
they look awesome as opticals the black frame suits you very well !
As sunglasses they are " only" black sunglasses

I’m also not asking for anyone’s advice. Someone asked for a pic or smoke fade and I provided it. I like how they look and designed them as such. Don’t need to change anything when I’m very happy with them.

Thanks for contributing your pic @JerkStore . I think it’s up to @cityofdelusion now to share a pic if he’s wondering if smoke fade works for him.
