My third pair of Enzos and my favorite colorway so far!

Not sure what all that means. All I know is that the selection of size-appropriate frames to choose from for me is drastically diminished, and I don’t like that. I feel cast aside.

Don't understand you dude. You're outraged at Jerome (who you think is a jerk) for price hikes and catering to the Hollywood elite, no longer considering buying any additional frames because they're too expensive, and now you're complaining they aren't designing enough for you? Just such a weird perspective to have man.

I Purchased a pair of glasses more than a week ago and no Tracking number and no contact what so ever. Five emails unanswered and numerous phone calls where they claim not to understand English and simply hang up the phone. Its with Paypal resolutions now and waiting for a refund.

Sorry to hear. Reach out to JMM and let them know. They might be able to mediate:

NGL, I can understand where you’re coming from with that comment. I really do, and I don’t begrudge you for it. The best I can do is to say that I am a complex-thinking feller, as in multi next level. Most can attest.

Here’s what I’m going to do—I’m going to come clean RHRN. I’m about to doubly break my boycott of greater than one year by purchasing not one but two frames despite all my valid objections. I’ve been saving and sacrificing and trying to ignore less than perfect impulse buys. The time is nigh. I think I got my point through with my boycott, so I’m letting JJ off the hook for now. I WILL continue to call it as I see it, though. COT!

This infuriates me! I just got taken by what I thought was a legit website for a non eyewear related purchase. There are no protections for the average Joe!!!!!! I hope it all works out for you, and I hope that a thousand times the misery befalls those filthy scammers who took you!

Anyone have thoughts on rose gradient lenses (Earl)? Not sure I’d like looking through red lenses. Silver has green gradients, which I’m familiar with. Trying to be open with colorways I normally wouldn’t get. Guess I could just order both and return the one I like less.

They look pretty remarkable in person, but I have no idea what it would be like to look through them for hours.

Tried all four c/w of the Earl today (Gold, Silver, Empire, and Pacific). Unfortunately, I'll be the first to bow out of the hype. While I could make the fit work, they seem a bit too wide, structured and blocky at the edges for my face. So it's gonna be a pass on the Earl for me.

But kudos to all of you who fit them better than me! Enjoy!

Did you perhaps take pictures with them on?

Would love to see more fit pics of Earl.

The Belvedere Breccia is really nice, balanced and classic, by far my favourite from the new drop, if it had the usual features of the regular range, I would seriously consider it.

I have a pair of gold LS frames with a rose gradient lens that looks killer. Granted, it’s a different designer, but I like the combo of gold titanium with a light rose fashion tint. (Get the fashion tint on top of the upcoming Gen S transitions in ruby if you need them to be darker outside in the sun. Put a flash mirror on them too if you really want to friggin rock.) Therefore, the Earl in gold with rose gradient fashion tint is a no brainer. JMTCWIYDMTI.

Seeing some resemblance as well. Curiously, I was yesterday cruising the web for it, after that the Shibusawa hadn't got much interest initially.

That looks nice, but the rose gradient I’m talking about is custom and noticeably rose/reddish. The pic you gave has a very brown hue to it.

Actually the official pictures show different shades of pink/red, my preference would be for the more muted ones.

The Earl could be my first metal frame.
