Does anyone know the name of this new frame? The Rover one is definitely tempting..

Looks a lot like Domoto, maybe a sun version with the regular barrel hinges and thicker temple arms?

"I'm stopping after 2 pairs".

After a 3rd pair, I'm finding it really fun to mess around with different shapes. I only wear opticals.

Anyone have any recommendations on what I could go for next in the future?

I'm learning I can pull off most shapes. I don't like redundancy though.

-Black Dealans (Covers classic rectangle shape, love the cat-eye edge.)
-Camel Schindlers (Feels like classic '40's P3s on steroids with the sharp angles and cat-eye)
-Akila Miracles (Black aviators in the classic teardrop shape.)

I've been interested in Ichikawa and Fellini, but frankly they're too similiar to the Dealan.

I've debated trying out Enzo opticals, but they may be too large for my face. Also hesitant on them being even heavier than my Dealans.

The Kelly is appealing for a full on cat-eye frame, and still appears to be in stock in many places.

Have you tried the GOAT? Try a titanium frame

Cross post from waywt but since this is 90% car selfies and in-store selfies I figured a full fit might be helpful.

Semi-related - has anybody tried the Caan (or any of the Umit apparel?) or seen any fit pics anywhere.

I’ve just noticed the pricing jumping around on the JMM site.

New Enzo frames, all 3 were (AUD) $1200 a week ago, $1150 a few days ago, and now $1360! 😂

What in the actual F is going on. I think I’m out at these prices.

I adore my Enzo’s, but unless I can pick them up from online stores who discount, I’m not paying retail.

Enzo Surplus on Mondello.

Jacques Marie Mage Enzo - surplus

oversize, blocky, and bold the Enzo is inspired by the iconic frames worn by il Commendatore himself, Mr. Enzo Ferrari, founder of the automobile marque that bears his family name. A powerful frame for a powerful personality, these shades hide your sins from the world while giving you the will...

This wasn’t on the site when I checked the other day. I’d say this is one of the last chances to buy this frame new, and at 20% off.

@lsterling I reckon these would be a nice Xmas gift for your old man 😂

They are doing 20% off all products again with the code QUICK20

I don't think titanium works as well for opticals. JMMs strength is in acetate, their titanium does nothing for me.

Gold metal in particular is too similiar to my skin as well, so not much contrast.

Spoiler: Non JMM metal frames

@FlyingHorker , I bet you could pull off the Standifords. Do they have them at the shop nearby, you could try out?

Looks like me and you have similar skin tones. Man you’re missing out on some nice frames. I’m naturally tan but get darker in the sun and some gold frames with green lenses pop nicely. In fact I think the glacier colorway look great on darker skin. I hear you on the acetate though hard to get into the titanium frames as they are like JMMs b side and I thought like that until I tried my all time favorites the Beauregards. The Cortina in titanium are great too. They have a douchy Cazal feel but that makes them even better!
I think you’d look straight from Miami with some Cortinas (compliment ha) and would look ace
