    Ray Ban & Persol made by Luxottica - so what?

    I have a bunch of Persols 714 and I like them. I don't see a decline in quality, but I can see it in Ray Ban's. Vintage Ray Ban are superior in my opinion. Persols, maybe only if you find a certain style / color combination that does not exisit anymore. Otherwise, they are decent, I think.

    Do you wear an undershirt? Why?

    At the end of the day, it's a matter of preference and climate. Personally, I avoid undershirt whereever possible, and so do many elegant gentlemen including G. Bruce Boyer
