I love the Clyde. Granted I only tried on the Ari, but they had quite a different feel/look when on.

Get both lol.

Yes, I can see they are different, but also somehow similar as wraparound frames.

Also in this type, the Benson.

Absolutely agree. I would also clump the Harrison in with them too, which I also purchased. Know some people hate the wraparound style. I’ve always been a big fan.

I would also recommend the Apollo, a handsome and way underrated model.

Absolutely love the look. That local retailer of mine has a pair that’s been tempting me for months now.
I have a chocolate Apollo and it’s easily my top 3 favorite pair in my collection. The fit is amazing

Damn. That’s the colourway my retailer has too.

Also was sent a picture of a local pair of Chrome Hearts essentially in the jmm rover colourway.

With this thread and those pictures incoming it’s hard to stop myself.

Going deeper and deeper in the rabbit hole. More than 40 frames and yet not done. To be honest, I never put a limit, I'm a collector.

Oh dear. I know there are some who like these frames and others similar to them, but I’m not one. I think they’re hideous and horrid. Atrocious, pure and simple. That being said, I’ll bet there are some fellers out there who make these rock larger than El Cap in Yellowstone Park With all my respect, it’s just an opinion from an obsolete curmudgeon so take it for what it’s worth.

We have different tastes, but any opinion is legitimate and welcome, if expressed respectfully.

Morning all - picking up a new pair of Molino’s tomorrow in Havana 7, and would love y’all’s option with respect to the color of replacement RX lenses I put in.

Not my photos below, but first picture is of Zepherin’s in the same color combo as the Molino’s I’m buying, and the second is JMM’s stock image of the Molino’s. Thinking of either brown polarized or a light blue similar to the stock lenses but excited to hear your thoughts.

On the face pics would be more useful Dorian


I just and across a frame named Godard. I think opticals only. Looks like a slightly less feline Dealan but only out in the usual boring black and tort. Would like to see that in more adventurous colours.

That light blue won’t be much use if you’re planning on wearing as sunglasses. Maybe consider transitions if you’re wearing them indoors and out?
