wow ivans..

ive been searching like crazy i came accross Dita and was realllly impressed.

Came back to tell and you already had.

Strange.

Im liking some of the Grand Master 2 quite a bit actaully

[btbam]

Less the more i look at them.. maybe too "street"

[Ivans On High]

rock it watergate style in the Grand reserve.

They are really well made from my experience with them. I almost bought a pair, but opted for some Hacketts.

[st_]

dunno if isson frames would be too 'street' for you or not, but i'm probably gonna cop some theodore in black. i gave up searching after a while, it's too damn hard!

[Ivans On High]

Those theodores are pretty nice. I have a pair of Issons from a year and a half back. But they don't suit my waredrobe at all now.

They advertise in Men's Ex a lot. Wouldn't have thought that you'd like those though.

Love dita. Got some Shuron's myself.

[btbam]

Thanks corey, seen the site just cant read it! Thinking they might be just normal glasses not sunglasses :\

Still not much luck - might look more in depth at Dita's

[jpgm]

joe - dita do some nice shades.

i picked up the linda farrow x damir doma glasses recently, really like them.

if you have some coin to drop...

check out REIZ - they are german, and recently did a sunglasses line called RLTD. i have some REIZ specs and they are fucking awesome.

i tried on the RLTD mark IV when i was at spectacles for humans in SF...seriously amazing glasses, but i couldnt drop ~$700AU on something that'll get scratched to shit.

my last pair were bottega veneta, they usually do some pretty understated, classic designs.

DITA make some magnificent frames. i especially love the two tone ones.

xpost from sunnies thread. here are my vintage ones:

Hey J show me some pics of yours DDs on. I am not sure if i could pull them off.

Ive searched for Reiz but also not sure if these would suit me - sadly i need something quite large for my head.

[corey]

http://spectaclesforhumans.blogspot.com/ <- stock most of the brands being discussed and have fit pics.

[jcotteri]

the mark IV could be ok.. I wish I could try these on

What were these priced like?? I'm guessing around $700?

[jpgm]

yep - the mark IV were just over $600 US (maybe $630? cant remember...), so $700ish.

crazy expensive, but they fit like a dream and look amazing. spectacles for humans had one pair left in the black when i was there a month ago.

joe - the mark IV would be big enough, your noggin is far from novelty sized.

i dont have any snaps with them on, but i think theyd look good on you. not hard to pull off at all imo.

Hey everyone

For those interested interview on Australian Fashion Review.

[home]

these are great. any one with a model number? or better yet, an idea where i can pick up a pair? s/s06, right?

i'm also partial to linda farrow. her calobs are hit and miss but i like what she's done with raf and doma. might cop one day if i can get an oki discount..

[edit]

The fashion review images are okay, but i think it would be difficult to find 3 images that do a worse job of showing the clothing than the ones AFR have included in the article.

Found this old article...

"Black Tie 42/S"

They do come up for sale occasionally. If you're persistent, a pair might pop up on Superfuture, Y!JP or msndiorhomme.multiply.com

A few old results on in the supermarket...

They might not always be listed under their style code, so do search for variants of 06 / ss06 / campaign / runway / sunglasses.

yo JV

When is the nubuck article being uploaded to the site?

[James Vincent]

Hey C Got all the pictures done, just got to put it all together with some text. Hopefully tomorrow? Got some stuff on the worn nubuck, buffing out marks in nubuck and machine washing your own leather.

[eversuns]

Sweet as looking forward to it.

So whats news everyone? Thread has been dead over the weekend! I am assuming you got up to heaps!

[RaymondChiu]

i think someone here was looking for these augusta sandals

[James Vincent]

I think I'd be game to wear them. Bt, was there a final word on the possibility of Simone doing a run of sandals for our summer?

[Ivans On High]

man they look good. Probably a smidge small for me though.

[homme.homme]

I got mine from here a while ago.

they come in black,white and red. I'm looking for any colour to replace my near broken black ones. if anyone see's them hit me up.

random question but does anyone have any idea how to remove a copper stain from a pair of jeans without applying vinegar to them? must have splashed some chemicals on my dark grey pair of uniqlo jeans today while fabricating some PCBs, tried washing them twice but the stain is still there.
