      I am sure that I would a complete twat in these, but I am super intrigued…..

      I quite like those - I love rounded frames, but being as my face is somewhat Round, they exacerbate my appearance (in a bad way), so I stick to more square and rectangular frames.

          I see the draw of each. Different and awesome.

          Maybe so. Maybe not

            Dita Insider-Two

            After looking at your post again on IG three times, I snagged some Insider Ones.  My luck with finding NIB gear from forum friends has been on point lately. Should have them early next week and hopefully able to get lenses made before we leave for holiday

              Those are really nice, I reacently looked at a similar Model at Masunaga

              http://www.masunaga1905.com/en/product/858

              My go to german made Brand Lunor does some Acetate and Metal Mix Glasses too but the engraving on the japanese Models is really nice and kind of unique.

                Got my lenses installed in my Insiders and really dig them. A lot different than I would normally go, but definitely something fun to have in the rotation.

                Now I have my eyes on the Buckeye in Amber/White Gold for my 2018 optical purchase.

                Anyone have a pair and could post up pics?  Sadly, I am quite a different size And shape than their model on he website [emoji23]

                      Went and tried on some new glasses yesterday.

                      Thoughts?

                      I have my favorite, my wife has hers, and I know which ones look terrible but wanted to share.

                      Folsom Black

                          First and last are my favorite. Middle two work, but IMHO are not my favorite in comparison.

                          The first one is more modern (definitely works for you) and the last one has more of a retro vibe (also definitely works for you and your style).

                          You won’t be satisfied until you wear Iron Heart.

                              Thanks for the feedback gents - I’m leaning towards these tho…

                              The Buckeye were too “flimsy” for me to really feel comfortable buying. And the Statesman, well... my wife said “you’d look like a fat Anderson Cooper” in them... which is entirely Accurate.

                                I guess I should have prefaced with, they all look good.

                                Those ones will definitely suit you well. I totally feel you on not wanting “flimsy” frames…

                                  Thanks @DStauffer - the tortoise do fill a void in my collection, although my daughter did recently break my Black Dior Square frames, so I could easily slide the Black or Tortoise Folsom in

                                      I have been a Ray Ban guy for the past few years and have owned my fair share of Warby Parkers. Recently, I have been interested in the Effector brand and picked up a pair of the Harmonist model.

                                      These are going out today to have my clear prescription lenses put in, but they are on another level IMO. Excited to get these into rotation…

                                          These Lindberg glasses were bought in Vienna during my summer holidays in 2016. I like them.
