James oro legacy Cruze

Hey all!

Just wanted to get your thoughts on this frame

It’s the james ORo legacy cruzer.

Running for about $250 with a %20 discount at the moment

I have some hiring frames, but I’ve been wanting to something with a bold fit, and a silver lining on the arms.

I have a couple pair of JMM’s but they’re both gold so I had nothing to compare to.

I will say that the acetate is good quality to me. Not saying it’s on the same level as a JMM, but for my purposes, it’s good.

I’m really just not sure about this silver. Does it look cheap in your opinion?

I’m wondering if I’m just overthinking it, because again I have no silver style frames like this to compare it to at the moment

The frame fits me well overall and I like it. I’m just not sure about the silver on the side.

What do you guys think? Is it worth keeping and doesn’t look fine and in my overthinking?

Or am I better off to return it and perhaps invest in getting another JMM or first thenri/ or a Matsuda/c&g piece??

Thanks in advance for your input!

these affordable designer-look sunglasses got me second guessing my cart, help me decide on this

im actually eyeing a pair from a brand my friend swears by, were talking $200+ range but every time i go look at them i end up on some other site seeing frames that look almost identical for like $25-40 and i genuinely cant figure out what the price difference is actually buying me like is it the lens quality, the hinge, the way it sits on your face after a few months or is a chunk of it just the name? not trying to be cheap about it, just wanna know if theres something im not seeing before i commit

anyone here go through this and actually feel the difference after buying both ends??

Transitions colourtouch vs Zeiss photofusion

A few photos in 24 Celsius sun comparing colourtouch Amber with Photofusionx Burgundy. We are forecast to have 30 degree heat this weekend so the contrast in not just sun but heat may show up more.

For now, my ‘hypothesis’ is that as transitions colourtouch have a c25% base they will remain darker even in heat. These photos compare colourtouch (amber) with transitions (burgundy), both at full activation.

They are pretty similar but to me the amber does seem to go a bit darker - that may just be the difference between the tint colours, but for instance I can face the sun with the colourtouch amber with slightly less glare.

(Edit: both frames are Masunaga One Hundreds… different colourways).

Custom Eyewear

My head is really wide, and I have never found glasses that truly fit without looking like a child that's wearing glasses that are too small due to how the glasses fit. I need glasses that are completely custom to my size. Any recommendations would be great!

Are True Vintage Revival 505-46 ok for a normal size face?

I have to get a TVR frame and it will be shipped to me. As the clip-on is available only in size 46, so I wanted to check if any community member has used size 46 TVR frame before? My face profile is attached.

Matsuda M5006 - tint suggestions

Added these lovely Matsudas to my collection for use as weekend sunglasses. I'm looking at an 85% tint because it is bright and sunny all the year round here.

Would the Zeiss burgundy work with these palladium white frames or should I pick another colour? (My skin tone is best described as a warm brown)

I can choose tints offered by Zeiss, Hoya and Essilor.

Festival ready! ✌🏼💛💚☀️

Heatwave incoming in the UK - can only mean one thing, pop pickers!

Is 8 pairs of sunglasses too many for a weekend in a field? Asking for a friend… 😉

Vintage sunglasses referrals in Bengaluru or chennai

Hello All,
I’m looking for eye glasses with the frame like this.
The one in picture is very old ( late father’s)
Can anyone recommend a shop who deal with these kinda frames.
The online shops do have similar but not same kinda frames ( there’s a reinforcement of metal with the fibre)

Mail order Lenses with tint over Transition

Hi. Just wondering if anyone has a source for someone doing light tints over transition/photochromic lenses with AR. I know smaller boutiques like Gagosha/anthony Aiden can do this but the cost for a single vision lens with base tint/transition/AR is about $650 or $700. I have lots of pairs I want to do this way so looking for something more cost effective but is anyone doing this type of work for less?

lavender or clear for the office

I’ve settled on these frames, but I am trying to decide if the 20% lavender tint is too much or inappropriate for a man to wear in an office setting or if I should just go with clear lenses. For context, I am 45 year old architect.

Finally got my hands on a Matsuda. These are supposed to last years. Anybody who has owned one? Let me know your experience.

Fred America Cup

I love Fred! Shame they're criminally underrated. But the best stuff never gets the love it deserves. The 22kt gold plating, platinum nautical ropes, and the Zeiss mineral glass lenses all come together beautifully on the delicate frame. I've had a lot of aviators over the years but few can compare to the majesty of Fred.

Suggestions for P3 Keyhole Glasses?

Hi all,

What are your favorite James Dean-esque, P3 keyhole glasses?

I love the Zephirin 47, but I feel like the acetate would feel so heavy after a long day, especially with prescription lenses in. Additionally, I have a low bridge and small nose, so unsure if a 26mm nose bridge would look weird on me.

Any suggestions for alternatives would be appreciated!

Masahiro Maruyama MM-0001 Questions

Hey! My first post here, and my first time owning designer glasses, so looking for any feedback at all!

I recently bought these prescription glasses that I ended up learning had quite a high retail price for a person who knows nothing about glasses, lol.

I guess my main questions are just what the community thinks of these, what the MM-0001 means (is this the first frame of the line?), and any other information about this brand? I’d love to learn more.

Thanks for looking!
