Jacques Marie Mage - Wolves, Obnoxious Acetate and The American Dream

[LuisedPicked]

May I ask what color blue that tint is and what company does it?

These are the original JMM filters, borrowed from the Torino Havana 1 and Bronze.
They are frames from 2017-2018 (The first Torino models introduced)

Just took delivery of my second case so time for some ‘state of the collection’ photos.

Blue box - all Dealans. As I said recently they’re not my favourite frame but they keep coming out in great colours.

Left column:
Awaiting stingray expected early July
Turquoise Black Optical LE
Hickory AS

Right column:
Vesper
Vermillion Optica Toscani LE
Yellowstone Wolf

Red box - mixed frames reflecting my original intention of never repeating a frame or a colour. Obviously I utterly failed on the former but holding steady on the latter!

Left column
Awaiting … ? Blue Molinos ??
LF Rawlins in black with custom dark blue flash lenses
Ashcroft in prime with custom purple flash lenses

Right column:
Herbie in cobalt
Molino in camel
Comanche in reserve

After this my intention is either no more JMMs or else a strict one in one out policy if there’s a release I must get. (Famous last words!)

Anyone else aspiring to end their collection or is everyone in an ever-expanding mode?

Nice box - maker?
How long is your vacation? Sunny destination?
I’m going to England soon for sixteen days and thinking about which frames will make the cut but there’s not a great likelihood of sun there!😀

16 days eh? No need for sunnies, clear will suffice, it’s pissed it down everyday since December…… 😊

My local boutique (Eye Gallery in Houston) had these cases made. 9 days but sadly on a couple of sunny days.

Nice collection there. I’m at 12 frames, soon to be 13. Trying hard not to expand beyond an Earl I have inbound. (If money were no object, I’d get an Enzo in seed and possibly a Richard, but I suspect that the Richard is not for fat heads.) Akoni and Masunaga seem to trying to get my attention.

Most storage cases come in a factor of 6 so if you get those Earls you’ll need a new case with five empty slots waiting to be filled.

The Comanche and the Balzac!

I love the Balzac on you. Lovely jacket too.

The Hemmings doesn't get talked about much because it is so large. I rock it, but I can only barely make it work thanks to my beard. Many who wear it probably cannot wear many other JMM frames, so they don't chat much. That being said, there is an upcoming release including reserve, indigo, and samoa which is so sold out it's not even on the website. Glad I got my indigo and reserve reserved.

Agreed, I love the Hemmings, but they are really large. Pushing the boundaries to wear them.

Is that on Westheimer at Shepherd? I used to live very close to there long before I discovered JMM. I’ll definitely try to see the shop in person next time I’m in Houston.

On Westheimer and pretty close to Dunlavy....down by the Montrose district

Which is precisely the reason why I emigrated!

The official name is "Honey", and they are incredible. Coming in both the Vendôme and Yves. I recently became a huge fan of Marigold.. and this is giving Marigold vibes, although not quite the same. I'm not sure if I should hold out for a Marigold (Loewy or Zephirin) or buy the Vendôme Honey.

I'm a great fan of Marigold as well and recently I could finally get the Loewy. I would certainly buy the new Vendome, waiting to spot your "grails".

By the way, it doesn't look like an Yves in the trunk show pictures. Still hoping for a Fellini.
