get clip ons for that style my man, what are you doing

>>17486997
I've seen younger people wearing thin framed glasses. Aren't they called incel glasses? Or are they not incel-ish because the frames are round? Honestly, been thinking about what kind of frames I should get for my new prescription.

>>17486997
>>17487021
The whole Johnny Derpp retro style is fucking dead.
Round glasses have also been played to death by tiktok bitches.

>>17487069
I see rimless y2k glasses coming back.

>>17487075
Like these ones? These are the ones I see coming back. I remember wearing that kind when I was a kid. Man, now I look like a fool with my thick-framed glasses. Should I get glasses like picrel for my new prescription?

>>17487073
>The whole Johnny Derpp retro style is fucking dead.

Yeah that style is DEAD, it was only cool for like the last 80 years, I'm sure what you saw on tiktok last week defines what's actually perceived as timeless style.

>>17487122
>t. Laggard the Angry Millenial

Didn't glasses depend on the form of your face to look better?

>>17487084
Yeah, or like this

Recently got liking the look of cyber glases. Something like deathstrending. Not so big lenses, but the frame, which makes them close to mask.

>>17487167

>>17487169
Prada has something coming close to this concept, but not exactly it.

>>17487158

Literally all movie stars that are popular with young people wears glasses like this still.

Just because you got caught in a microtrend bubble on chinese social media doesn't mean that fashion at large has shifted away from something that has been a staple for literally almost a century.

>>17487183
does anyone have an id on the middle left glasses? they're very similar to wayfarers but slightly different

anyone got an ID on these?

Right now I have a pair from Giorgio Armani and a basic pair from LensCrafters. Next pairs I plan on getting are from Matsuda, Brunello Cucinelli, and Morgenthal Frederics

>>17487256
>buying glasses for the brand name

Are fully transparent frames effay?
I noticed this eceleb wearing them and it looked much better on him than normal glasses

>>17487262
I’m buying them for the aesthetic. They’re all the same shape I love but made of different materials or different touches that make them unique. The matsuda glasses have some art deco touches I like, the brunello have the clip on sunglasses, and the morgenthals are made of genuine horn and are my goal pair

>>17487268
Here’s the brunello

>>17487183
sunglasses =/= glasses

>>17487271
And here’s the matsuda

>>17487268
The horn I can understand, but I'm suspicious of how consistently "high end" your choices are, such that I think the fact that one of them happens to be an interesting material seems more like a fluke, an inadvertent side effect of your shameless brand whoring. It's hardly an uncommon style.

>>17487276
I don’t care about brands so much as quality of materials and build. The Armani I have is because I didn’t know anything about glasses and I went to LensCrafters for my first pair. The sales person was awesome and got me this pair which fit my face perfectly and enhanced my features. After that I got the LensCrafters pair which is thicker because I needed a backup pair since I live in Ukraine now and it’s a war zone.

The smarter I get, the more thicker I want my glasses to be.

>>17487280
One of my pet projects was going on the brunello cucinelli website and building a capsule wardrobe. I then went and assembled and alternative wardrobe that’s much cheaper but the clothing is made of the same or higher quality materials and quality

>>17487287
charge your battery

>>17487288
It’s an old screenshot

>>17487280
Price doesn't correlate with quality in glasses.
My 300 euro frames (Moscot) are the same quality as chinese copies I have.
Actually, the chinese copies have slightly crooked edges where the plastics meet, but not something you would notice if not looking. Meanwhile, over time they have held their shape better, got damaged less, their hinges are in better condition and overall feel like higher quality in hand.

Go figure, but don't let these facts keep you from cucking yourself out of a weeks worth of work for something a chinese kid makes in 3 minutes.

>>17487272
Oh yeah, great point.

>>17487295
Yeah my moscots broke faster than my "mall brand" oliver peoples. The main advantage to moscot was to sound cool when people asked me where I got my frames, and there's nothing better than the "what's that" as they confirm they don't know SHIT about eyewear making me feel very superior

In any case tripfriend has built up a whole rationalization in his head for why it has to be Brand X, it's a pretty harmless fetish, I don't see the need to talk him out of it, I'm the same way

>>17486997
I used to have a pair of Ray Ban eyeglasses, and they were amazing - looked great, super flexible and durable, and only cost me like $200 after insurance. They were kind of a rounded rectangle/oblong shape, and were medium brown wood grain looking.
Unfortunately, I destroyed them in an incident and had to get a new, cheap pair of glasses. Currently wearing some generic black Wayfarer clones from Zenni. Their plastic frames seem pretty durable now, whereas I think they used to be quite flimsy, brittle, and breakable.
Tldr: my recs are Ray Ban for normal/have some money to spend, Zenni for super affordable/just need a pair that looks OK

>>17487295
I’m not a fan of buying Chinese products in general if I can avoid it. It’s not too expensive for me either the brunello are only $750 and the matsuda are $450. The only pair that is going to present any challenge is the morgenthal and they’re about 3/4 a paycheck after taxes.

>>17487307

If you're making 2200 after taxes a month and you consider buying 1700 glasses that you can break sitting on, lose them (plus they get scratched to shit within a few years anyway) you're doomed to remain poor due to poor life decisions.

I considered buying Moscots at 300 an extremely stupid move economically and I make around 8000 a month after taxes.

>>17487303

You're right, a fool and their money. I'll stop here.

>>17487325
I make $4,400 a month, and I already have most of my life covered. I got a house and two cars. I’m doing pretty well, might as well enjoy my money before I have kids in a couple years and I start focusing on them

>>17487326
Jesus I make quite a bit more than that and I don't even have a car, why do you need two of them, are you trying to start a taxi company?

>>17487326
I moved to Eastern Europe for a reason. My annual income was decent in America since it was 15k over the average. But it was still not much especially these days. Here my income is over 15 times the yearly average income, I was able to get a house for a tenth the price a starter home would be in the USA. Overall I’m very happy with life

>>17487330
I live in rural Ukraine so I need a car to get place to place. One car is my summer fun car a 94 Toyota mr2 and the other is my winter beater a 96 Renault Megane. I had a 2022 Jetta in the USA but I sold it because the import fees were too high

>>17487336
>earn a lot more than the average wage
>will probably get the shit blown out of you

It's a hard toss up I'll give you that.

>>17487336
Damn brutal. Imagine living in a literal warzone with an average European salary and having the urge to consoom fucking glasses that cost you weeks of labor instead of saving for the inevitable rainy day in fucking warzone.

Unreal.

>>17487343
I’m not in the East so the risk is lower but still there. So far the closest rocket explosion was about 60km away. Now if the rumors are true and there is another invasion from the north things could get a bit heated but I’m ready to bunker down in the cellar if need be

>>17487346
50k a year is average salary? My expenses total to $250 a month here

>>17487348
Pre-inflation. Truly beyond salvation, feeling rich despite living paycheck to paycheck in a warzone.

>>17487352
I’m not living paycheck to paycheck? All of my cars and home are paid for. Like I said my monthly income is $4,400 and my monthly expenses are $250

>>17487352
Thats the Eastern European mindset

Yea yea, but anyway. Moscot is pretty alright. They're glasses, for you eyes. Your fucking eyes. Get decent quality frames that are worth putting new lenses in when it's needed or having them repaired and even more importantly don't be cheap with your lenses.

>>17487250

LeGrandGay by LeFaggot

so I have some zenni (chinese) classic punk heavy black frame prescription glasses. The photochromic where they turn dark in sun barely darkens them. I need to get some clip on lenses to go over them but all my searches turn up these- the same style frame but meant only to go over wire frame or glass only lenses. Where can I find a set of clip ons for the classic black frame instead of the classic black frame as clipon. Bonus points if shit doesn't turn out looking incredibly fucking stupid.

>>17487660
the clip on for wire frames

>>17487241
They look like Saint Laurent

>>17487297
Literally a millenial and looks like shit.

>literal warzone
clueless faggot. its not a full scale war with settlements getting air raided or anything.

Anyone know where I can get some similar glasses with a frame width of 144mm or larger? I know they're a basic pair of glasses but I can never find decent ones in my size.

Can I pull these off?

Can I pull these off? Any glasses with this kind of frame?

>clueless faggot. its not a full scale war with settlements getting air raided or anything.

Are you autistic?

Where can I get a pair of these that aren't assembled in a chinese factory?

>>17488268
They don't exist.

>>17486997
Gonna embrace my inner dad and cop me some of these since my last frames broke. Embrace old man core.

>>17487267
this dude looks fucking atrocious

>>17488456
Get a pair of acetate frame aviators like this, great balace of modern yet keeping that aesthetic.

>>17488472
Hadn’t crossed my mind! I’ll definitely try some on

Got these thoughts ?

>>17489758
They are just ok. Not different enough to really be pushing the boat out, but just different enough to get called out by normies.

>>17489758
>ACK

>>17487084
Maybe it's just me but I think rimless glasses look awful and haven't seen a single person that suits them. they give off minimalist/futuristic vibes like google glass or some shit.

I have a fake pair of these with clear optical lenses as my main ones and fake moscot miltzen crystal as my alternate. I have a twink-ish body and a small face, but unfortunately my face is of a more rectangular shape, so I need to use very rounded glasses. Finding nice unique optical glasses is very difficult; where I live, having custom optical lenses fitted costs the equivalent of $300 USD, so it's generally best for me to buy fakes from china where I can get frames + lenses for $70 through a middleman, or $20 if I buy directly from Taobao. I'd like to buy a single, real pair from some niche brand, but they would have to be completely unique and nothing like I could walk into a store anywhere in the world and buy.

>>17487295
In 2016 I bought a pair of Oliver Peoples glasses when I was in the US. One of the arms fell off a little less than 3 years later. By contrast, the fake GM Cozmo I bought in mid-2019 are still fine.

>>17486997
Moscot's classic frames are pretty great

>>17490948
I need to keep losing weight so my jaw looks good. I think I'm at 16% now

Getting these, worried the design is gonna look dumb but i didnt want to go black frames again after years

>>17487273
these looks sick

>>17490948
I read online, and heard from at least one retailer, that moscot's quality has diminished in recent years and noticeably so. Anyone itt have any experience?

>>17487273
All good choices and nothing bad to say about any of the picks. If I were to nitpick I'd say the Matsuda verges on the busy and you could almost say it was distracting compared with the beautiful simplicity of the others. Or perhaps the others are just boring?
That's rich coming from someone that just bought some 10610H's which are as busy and distracting as fuck lol, but whatever fits you best as you can't lose with those choices senpai.

>>17490783
I tried a pair and it just reminded me I look older with them. I think I'll keep my thick-framed pair. Crazy how I used to make fun of them.

>>17488024
looks cool

>>17491325
Thanks anon. Do you know if these kind of glasses shape have an specific name?

>>17487069

I've only seen rimless glasses being worn by old people

>>17487172
Glasses like those can get uncomfortable, because they create a small air pocket around your face, where moisture like steamy sweat gets trapped in. Makes your eyes, cheeks and lower forehead permanently be covered in moisture.

>>17487169
Oakleys

>>17488268
Their frames are usually thicker than those, but probably take a look at lesca. They are made in France and their prices are around the same as moscot.

>>17492013
Thanks, I'll check them out. Any idea as to where I could get custom clip-ons done too? I love moscots custom tints, and thought that a tortoise shell would look really nice with a deep red clip on.

I've been wearing black thick rimmed glasses for a bit over a decade now. I'm gonna get a new prescription and I'm considering changing the style, but I'm not sure where to go from my current style.
Any suggestion appreciated.

Rate my glasses
Had them for about 6-7 years
Prescription still hasn’t worn

GANT btw

What glasses do you guys recommend? Also what color is my eye? Some people have said hazel but they just look brown to me

Does anyone know what the 70s era serial killer glasses are called, I wanna get frames like that

>>17492569

I don’t care about other People’s approval, and so should you, but the brands I’ve worn since I got glasses are:
- Cutler & Gross
- Thom Browne
- Oliver’s People

All three make great products, so that’s my recommendation to you

is there a noticeable weight difference between titanium and metals? I note metals since alot of brands dont state what they are

>>17492523

>>17487667

Any recs for rectangular frames? Not really worried about price but I also don't want to spend like $600+ on just the frames.

Armed private security

my glasses are my person but I can't find my glasses anymore

Have any of you bought sunglasses thru any of those rx glasses/contacts sites?
You can get designer glasses for a lot less than their being sold everywhere else.
I can't tell if there's some hidden catch, like the glasses are just good fakes or factory seconds.

i will ONLY BUY GLASSES THAT ARE MADE OF PURE HORN FROM THE 50s

>>17494650
They make horn glasses now, the real flex is finding real tortoise shell glasses. So far I’ve found one company that makes them from pre ban stocks but they’re $$$$$ and made in Paris

ID on these sunglasses from Chanel, they look sick.

Inferior to the OP O'Malley.

>>17494920
Is not hard to find real tortoise shell, you can easily find it online, the problem is that they are expensive as fuck.

glasses are japanese, german, french or bust

I need new glasses soon too

I was going to default on Warby Parker unless I see something interesting in this thread. Thanks OP I support you

>>17494298
How do you get that kind of job? Is ex-military/police the only way?

>>17496938
Pretty much. I got a friend that does it. He said something like 80% of his co-workers are ex-military and most of the rest used to be in law enforcement or did security for at least 5 years.

Need some help buying new clothes on a budget. Lost 60% of my wardrobe while moving - really dont know where a couple of boxes went in the process of moving from tampa to miami.

i'm 6'1 210 pounds aka dadbod. tanned skin.

Just asking for ideas on styles, colors, and general pointers. Guess you can say I don't know how to dress well.

>>17497293
Not the right style for my face shape

Had an eye test recently. My left eye is fine, but my right needs +1. Should I get a monocle? I kind of like them.

>>17488268
Those frames come from China in the first place.

>>17489758
Junk oversized replica of Persol frames.

>>17490948
Moscot makes junk. Literally made in China copies of better Eyewear brands like OTE, Anglo American, Persol, Shuron, Oliver Peoples. Moscot is for redditors who don't know better. Zenni tier quality. I shouldn't even respond. This is a case of those who know don't say and those who say don't know. It benefits me when more people wear junk.

>>17487122
What are some reccos if I want ones similar to bottom left?

>>17497895
stop buying luxottica.

>>17486997
I had to get size 49 width glasses because my face is so thin most glasses don’t fit my face. It was the first time I was actually happy with glasses in my life. Had them for 3 years since my vision stabilized. Always look for the width number on the frames arm guys it’s a game changer.

>>17488024
yes, but they're a little small for your face, you can tell because the 'legs' have to flay out to fit. If it had a wider nose bridge and were slightly more oval, it would probably suit you better.

>>17497580
I wouldn't get corrective lens' for +1 unless you're suffering. Consider readers if you're over 30.

>>17490783
they make me think of like a mid 2000s Belgian bureaucrat working for the EU

>>17497293
what do we think?

>>17487069
they are back in vogue because of Korean / k-pop influence

>>17487169
just get the blackout pit vipers

post your EDC I'm genuinely curious

>>17498834
Thanks , that's actually really useful feedback , I could tell something was off but couldn't realize what

>>17499521
this, definitely. I always think of them as a combover, like the people don't want other people to notice they're wearing glasses.

>>17486997
I'm liking these

>>17497895

Moscot is not made in China.

I own these Oliver Peoples glasses, they're fantastic, also the first thing people comment when they see me for the first time, they just have broad appeal.

>>17499625
I don't like oliver peoples

>>17486997
Just got these from China, wish they didn’t have the gucci logo desu

Hey /fa/s i just copped this frames, the lenses have some graduation, to the point im asking for some guidance, i know they dont really fit my face type i just want to know which tint color would fit them better?

I was thinking dark green or dark amber, wdyt?

>>17489769
Where do I buy these?

>>17498030
>Luxottica bad
REDDIT. Besides only two of those brands are Luxottica (OP and Persol) which retained their rights to produce glasses in Japan and Italy. They're much higher quality than moscot which is as bad as the stuff you get on aliexpress. Besides if you have money to burn you can get real glass lenses from them unlike moscrap.

Im at the end of my rope. Circle lenses make me look like Harry Potter, and square lenses make me look like a school shooter. Aviator lenses make me look like a serial killer.

>>17504924
Wear raybens or get contacts

>>17505130
Very helpful answer bro
>wear raybans
yes, simply wear this brand that encompases 60 different frame shapes, types, and materials!
>get contacts
no shit. its for when I cant or dont want to wear contacts, nobody can wear contacts 24/7

>>17501324
have you ever had rimless glasses before? The care for them is more intense. You're actually not really supposed to fold them even at the hinges, the more work around that tiny hinge, the more likely they will break. If you only need a low script and not something high index, then the cost is smaller, but don't expect to ever get frames for them again.
t. high index rimless fan

>>17504924
it's really hard to give a judgement without seeing your face shape. you could censor out your eyes if you wanted to, its the face and nose shape and hairline that is all that's needed. Honestly, anyone wearing round ones looks like harry potter, so that's kind of generic.

>>17489758
notice how the guy in the picture looks like a collosal faggot? thats what you will looks like wearing them too

>>17504924

also, jut get square aviators

i don’t know where you guys are from but ive seen rimless glasses kind of come back (at least to a certain extent) ober here. maybe its just because i live in the city but ive had mine for a year and a friend of mine has bought some too, i guess you’ll see more of these on people’s noses in the upcoming years

>>17486997
Half-Iranian here, glasses with thick frames connect my eyebrows into a unibrow but thin frames are too close to an incel look. What do I do? Thick frames but not black? It's preferrable if my big nose doesn't look like a dick between two balls formed by the glasses.

Thoughts on ace & tate?

I like the look of the frames. Wish they provided more info/choices on the lenses.

Where do you get cute eyeglasses frames in the US? I'm looking for new glasses and wanted something cute for a change. I buy my stuff in the US or Japan. In Nipland I went to Rakuten and I quickly found pic related. Cute, pink, rectangular/oval, thin metal frame (titanium even) for 60-70 USD. Nowadays there seems to be more shops not accepting gaijin CCs and ofc having to deal with SS in the first place, so I went looking in the US. But I can't find anything similar. They are either cheap looking, too thick, ugly, big shapes, expensive af or a combination thereof. I've tried almost everything Google threw up in the first pages.

Any glasses superstore recommendations with wide variety of frames?

Else I'll have to end up with the Japs. My only worry is that the bridge in ALL of them seems to be 16mm. My current ones are 18-19. The rest of the measurements match what I have (~50 glass width, ~135 temple length). May have to go to a random shop here to try some 50-16 glasses before taking the plunge.

>>17508999

>>17508778
Wear round wire frames. I went to school with an iranian guy and he pulled that look off well.

Can anyone ID these glasses? I really like how they're pointed at the top

>>17509276
yeah but you sound nevertheless like pathetic whitoid mongrel living in muttland. Buy whatever glaases your shithole make then

You want my protip?
Get contacts or surgery

I went from getting zero pussy to girls literally walking up to me and asking me out after I started wearing contact lenses. I got tons of swipe backs on tinder after I deleted my glasses photos
Yeah it is a huge pain, but worth it

>>17511043

>>17511043
>lenses
No. Depending on the clips, they could scratch the frames.
