bummer, i just came home last night and didn't have a smartphone/computer with me but that looks great. i did randomly walk into an opsm in melbourne and even though the range was limited it was miiiiiiiiles ahead of the opsm's in adelaide. also, the sunglass range in david jones (was there buying perfume) looked crazy but it could have all been just women's? the cdg play store is cool but i dunno how long it will last.

For Tomorrow is only an online store I think.

There's Eastern Market, Cose Ipanema, Marais, Chiodo, and Left you can add to the list.

Thanks for the shops, Online is fine I guess.

Streetx is based in Perth, actually.

You're right. Tah.

^ politix surely takes the cake..

anyone tried a pair of oscar wylee frames? (http://www.oscarwylee.com.au/) friend put me onto it, dirt cheap, have got a bunch of demos on the way. i'm truly sick of paying the prices i invariably pay for spectacles. last pair topped 600 from memory - fuck australia. will report back - i've got quite the narrow face / large head so hopefully one or two fit..

^ ha, i'm the opposite. none really come small enough. got my trial pairs in the mail today - well decent for the price (matte finishes are a umpteen times nicer than the glossy). the reeve model is the only one that fits my little eyes, ha.. i ordered them on a whim thinking they looked a little feminine on the male model, but now i'm not so sure..

thoughts?

edit: also i just got four of these much-hyped guys in the post, uniqlo slim fit oxfords, but they're a little small on me. quality seems to be on par with my $200 ervell shit. if fact, material feels even nicer and killer colours to boot.

navy, blue, off-white and olive, all JP medium / US small, BNWT. drop me a line if you'd like to take all four off my hands and i'll throw in free postage.

those frames look good, although i don't know what you look like personally. you're 6ft right? i knew when you said you ordered a JP M they would be too small, uniqlo sleeves are usually way short. i'm 6'1 and need a L or XL depending on the fit i want. i'm sure you'll be able to get rid of them easily, though.

i am. actually, sleeves are bang on - it's the body length that's a little short. i got a long torso (read: short legs) so they might very well work on someone else as tall as i am.

i take anything from (jp) M-XL in uniqlo which makes proxying a bit of challenge.. i'll probably rue saying this but i can't wait for uniqlo to open in melbourne. next year, right guys?

i applied for the uniqlo management trainee program and got through to the 1 on 1 interviews (after cognitive testing/phone interview) - however, they wanted me to fly to melbourne and i wasn't able to due to uni exams. pretty sure they said the melbourne store would be open by xmas 2013.

edit: whilst you're here, how much does assin sell avignon by cdg for? i can't find any australian stockists anywhere - luckyscent have it but shipping is $40. ugh.

Hi, I am living in Sydney. Does anyone know where to buy Julius_7 or MA_Julius stuff locally other than Pieces n Harrolds? I have to wear size 3 to 4 (L in clothes, 44 in shoes) so it has been pretty difficult for me to find anything that is available.
