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

I think they look great on you, not too oversized and not too small either.
Can I ask you for the frame width? Would you consider them oversized?

I like the Daido ones, but in the silver version (the gold version if you're feeling like Elvis)

The frame width on the website is 150mm so certainly a wide frame, but these feel pretty narrow, probably due to the fact that the titanium arms on these new releases seem to almost be v shaped inward (my bresson had the same issue). I’d have to pull the arms out if I kept them which I don’t think would be a hard adjustment.

My guess is this is intentional as they expect many people who would fit into their “core” sizes (Fellini, Molina, yves, vendome, etc) to wear these as an intentionally oversized look. For me, they aren’t quite as oversized I think.

I just bought this one from the JMM official website. Finally I will have my Evans (Grayling).

They did a really good job with these. Lenses on these are really nice, too. Not just polarized but also darker than their usual.

Dealan camel

Dealans in samoa were one of my first JMM (Jacques Marie Mage) purchases when I made my entry to this thread on page ohhh around 1314, but I didn’t like how they looked and sent them back. Now I bought these ones in camel because they were -30% and absolutely love them. Not sure if my taste has changed or if it’s the lighter color or both.

They have a scratch on the inside and the „Dealan“ info card missing though, which is probably why nobody bought them. I don’t notice the scratch and am not planning to sell so I’m just happy about the deal(an).

These look fine and as I said recently Camel is a great colour.
Dealans must surely be the frame with greatest variety of colours.
It’s not even my favourite frame but they keep putting it out in so many tasty colours resistance is futile!

Most aviator / navigator frames with larger lenses always have a wider frame width around the 150mm region. You cannot really compare and use their numbers as a guide against acetate frame widths, it's apples v oranges.

Very nice, I just ordered the Taos in camel which are arriving today.
