if you must choose between the two, i like the first one better.

 

keep in mind handsome guys are wearing them in pic.

anyone had any success with repairing scratched lenses? it's regular plastic lens, kicking myself with not going for the sturdier glass ones now. 

[swooc]

^just get new ones made. most shops will be able to replicate the current lenses in shop.

did you get a scratch resistant coating/multicoating? might want to consider it for next time. replacing the lens shouldn't be too hard or costly if the optician/optometrist values your business.

sure, glass is a bit more scratch resistant but its also heavier, and a much much more dangerous material to use in spectacles. there are very few reasons to use a glass lens opposed to plastic nowadays.

i really like their frames.  the classic rounded 2-tone frames are especially dope (black/tortoise and blue/black)

i think opening ceremony carries some of their stuff

Anyone here tried on the Dita Grandmaster one ?

 

I have a larger head and wondered what they fit like and the quality for that matter:

 

 

I always liked the Cazal 607 but thought these were an interesting mix of Cazal & mid century acetate.

[RRWW]

Gonna fork out a few quid for these come Feb-March time, no point buying shades this time of year.

Does anyone own sunglasses from Oliver Peoples? Was thinking about buying this pair and just wondered what the quality was like

. 

[Fitzburgh]

Hey there, I was wondering if anyone has experience with Penguin eyewear, specifically their plastic/acetate frames. I liked the way they looked when I tried them on, but I haven't heard anything about their quality/durability. I'm currently wearing and possibly buying another pear of Seraphin from OGI, which I've been very pleased with.

 

Thoughts?

[Iwmmm]

These Oliver Clark x Lee Allen's are looking real nice.

 

these though, accidentally negged.

[WoodyAR]

 

What sunglasses are these?

Late passing. Yeah, I was looking at the exact pair you mentioned - black / tortoise combo. 

Couldn't really pull the trigger because "boston" frames are too "trendy."

[Arwhyayen]

Oliver Peoples have pretty small frames.

shit sorry, meant to pos rep you.

op's are pretty steeply priced though.

[fads]

op comes in bigger size, custom order or something

[Legate]

Yeh they are quite pricey, they should fit me according to the measurements on the site but if they don't I guess I can just return them. Thanks guys. 

[Mr.Sander]

Some nice ones there 

 

[WillKhitie]

^ Seconded. Can anyone comment on the quality of these? 

 

P.S. Posters are annoyingly beautiful too, IMO.

The 3 OP frames I have vary in sizes.

 

 

Top to bottom: 

 

NDG x OP

I tried the Peck ones and they were super small on my face.

[MxA]

 

 

Any idea what these are ? (guy on the left)

 

[Calbeee]
