/fa/ - Fashion

My pair of Mykita are still going strong after four years + of daily wear and I just got all the plastic parts replaced for free from their store. The engineering and craftsmanship are impeccable and the designs/collabs are interesting. Kuboraum also makes nice sunglasses. I didn't really see the point in paying over 1k for a pair of sunglasses and lenses, especially what it'd cost to get a pair of acetate frames bespoke. What is drawing you to look at bespoke? You're definitely not gonna get a pair under a grand.

I just bought these because they're the only ones that don't look goofy on my face. Are they /fa/?

>>15482614
No, they're basic

>>15482603
I can also rec Mykita, excellent design and construction

>>15482649
Aw man. Well, at the very least I think they're undercopped and stylish for RB.

>>15482664
Idk where you’re from but on the coasts every those are every middle schoolers first sunglasses

>>15482603
Yeah honestly really liking Moscot at lower prices better than a lot of the eb ones I’ll Czech those other companies tho.

>>15482685
The prices that brand charges for made in China...no sweetie. For a little bit more you could get a much nicer pair made somewhere like Germany or Japan.

To OP, I forget to mention a brand called Rigards. They have bespoke elements and potentially are in your price range. Also look into all the houses in Fukui. I think Masunaga was the original, but I also know Matsuda is made there.

>>15482363
Stick with Ray Ban or some other low end frames

1: most normal fags will think moscots, kanekos, ditas or designers they never heard of, Celine , chrome hearts are off brand

2: as a result of thinking they're off brand they will treat your things like it's also cheap like theirs. Ie throwing your expensive watch into their glasses and key pile thinking they're doing you a favor by "cleaning up"

I was recently in the bay area and in the bedroom I had laid out my edc. Keys, glasses watch.

My GF had a friend of hers tag along because that friend couldn't afford a room of her own so...no big deal couch is available.

Well this friend isn't exactly a savvy person and grabbed my entire edc layout threw it into an empty vase by the door alone with her dollar store shit.

And expected me to say thanks.

I just lectured her on if it's not yours don't touch it without raising my voice since women are like dogs and get frightened if you raise your voice or show emotion.

So if you're mostly around lower class people buy things they know.

Ienthey know Ray Ban and apple watch

They know Rolex.

They'll throw a Patek into a bin or a drawer.

Buy yeezys over Alden or whites.

Think.. they're low class people with low expectations of quality of goods.

What's horween? Oh coach is a good leather brand!

Right? Think like that.

>>15482680
Texas. Do you mean the brand or Clubmasters specifically. Because everyone here owns Aviators or Wayfarers, but few Clubmasters.

>>15482780
THEYRE MADE IN FUCKING CHINA??? F U C K that!

New to Japanese frames though, I like these

>>15482798
Clubmasters, although you do see a lot of wayfarers and aviators, less recently tho. Personally I like the wayfarers the best of any sunglasses, they work with any style and you can basically run them over

>>15482789
I dont let people touch my things, but Im usually around people who know the difference

>>15483262
Yep, Moscots are in China.

>>15482789
>>15483281
meant to include this in the last post but sorry to hear about that incident tho. Like I said, I dont like people touching my things, let alone moving them. The nerve of that bitch.

Shit that gets me is when people who want everyone to know they think material shit is frivolous and they care about more ~meaningful~ things, so they go around treating nice things like shit.

>Was at this gallery event
>outdoors, and some flashy cars are parked out front
>most are benzes, stuff like that
>one is some kinda entry level ferrari or porsche something, cant exactly remember but like you can tell its nice even if you dont know cars
>some people admiring it
>crusty old fuck with dirty ass pony tail (looked like he was involved with the art somehow, coulda been straight out of Portlandia) walks up and ever so pointedly, leans against the trunk with his unwashed clothes and metal pins/buttons on his satchel

Woulda been based as hell if he low key was the owner but later someone else who certainly wasn't him ended up leaving in it

>>15483297
*made

>>15483262
Yes, moscots are made in china. Garrett leight is another expensive brand made in china.

>>15483266
I like wayfarers, but they're really overused and I can't pull off a good look with them because they just don't fit my face.

>>15482614
Nah man they're chill

>>15482363
I really don't think near 1k is at all necessary. Consider getting multiple one's at around 200 each from various brands suggested that could suit different outfits better

>>15483386
Those are fine, good fit colors for that guy too. I guess I grew up parallel to that "swag fag" generation, saw too many blue club masters worn with neff bennies and a 20 IQ

>>15483393
No. Buy one really one good pair that fits with everything.

>>15483900
This is the idea. Besides I have a fuckload of pairs already

I also came here to make a sunglass thread. bump

A much older friend of mine (my neighbor) has experienced and accomplished more than any of you ever will and he has worn the same pair of 50 dollar sunglasses for the last 30 years of his life (they send a new pair for free every time they get lost or broken). Justify spending more than that on a pair of sunglasses.

>>15482789
>I just lectured her on if it's not yours don't touch it without raising my voice since women are like dogs and get frightened if you raise your voice or show emotion.

This is true, sometimes that isn't even enough. When I managed the kitchen of a restaurant there was a girl working there who never did enough prep for the night and didn't clean properly, seriously she had to be told to put the pile she swept up into the garbage and not just leave it on the floor. Anyway, after being left out to dry during service, I firmly walked her through her duties. No anger, no raised voice, but direct and professional. Next thing, she's not in the kitchen for 15 minutes, "Where is she? " oh out back bawling her eyes out, can't stay for the night. Contacts the owner. No correction in her performance and does the same thing next shift. Quits, said I yelled at her too much. HAHA

>>15482789

This is really fucking true. No recognizable branding = no name/dollar store shit.

>>15483386
They're chill but you're not getting any style points

>>15484475
the ones I like aren't 50 dollars. If they were I'd buy them for 50.

>>15484492
Ok that's a good reply but I really feel like the majority of the people spending big money on shoes, watches, sunglasses, and really fashion in general just want to feel superior knowing that their outfit cost more than the people they pass on the street's outfit.

>>15484501
probably right about that too

yuichi toyama

As basic as these are, i really want them.

Dior Homme

>>15482614
Possibly the worst choice you could make, all the basic bitches (and i mean 40 years old women) wear them. + they are uncomfortable.

>>15484475
Who gives a fuck about your neighbor and why should we justify wearing anything?

>>15482363
>$1,000 for sunglasses
You're out of your fucking mind

>>15484492
You only like the ones you like because they're not $50. You think that wasting money on sunglasses gives you status somehow. Develop a personality, this really sad.

>>15485330
No, I'm in my fucking bag. The pandemic has been fruitful.

>>15485310
>uncomfortable
Fucking lmao

can anyone recommend how to clean and restore old sunglasses?

>>15485331
This

>>15484482
Yeah, my life changed when I learned that women are not equals.

You have to treat them like dogs or children mentally.

They can't or won't do anything difficult for the pleasure of accomplishing something difficult.

They just know pumpkin spice latte and no responsibility

>>15484475
I mean they sit on your face for 6-8 hours a day everyday.

What's the point of Buying cheap ass glasses that aren't comfortable just because they're cheap.

Cateract surgery will cost more than a nice pair of glasses will anyways..

Since this thread is here.
Anyone know who makes nice quality sunglasses that I can get Rx lenses with?

>>15485331
poorfag cope is mind blowing.
maybe once you're out of your teens you can afford to buy things you like

>>15482789
> somebody asks for sunglasses
> namefag feels the need to explain how he hates poors and needs to treat women like children
fuck

>>15486883
$50 is definitely on the cheaper side, but you do eventually reach a point of diminishing returns with these kinds of things. Your argument doesn't hold up for comfortable glasses that protect your eyes, and you don't have to spend a ton of money for that.

>>15485331
No, I like the shape and design. I actually don't like the price at all, but it's not so unreasonable, my eyeglasses are expensive too. Now, they're not $500 but they're $50 either. Your projections are unbecoming.

I also need help finding some sunglasses. I really like dark green aviators, but I can never find any that completely block my eyes. searched everywhere and the place that I got my old pair at isnt around anymore. Im not looking for designer brands but if thats what you have Im all ears.

>>15487469
I guarantee 100% I'm way richer than you. Only poor people who have just recently ascended to a slightly higher status waste money on $1,000 sunglasses unless you legitimately have a net worth in the several million dollar range. Actual rich people tend to understand the value of money, that's usually why they're rich

do we like these?

>>15489614

no. Ugly.

Most offer RX lenses but particularly Oliver Peoples, cutler and gross and if you wanna go for a Churchill type look, the company he bought from is still open, C W Dixie & son

>>15489614
>net worth in the several million dollar range

is that what they call rich in your flyover state anon?

>>15483900
That's retarded. It doesn't matter how much you spend on sunglasses - it won't make up for the massive variations in shape that can compliment different outfits considerably.

What do you think about Oliver Peoples quality as of today?
I'm considering a titanium frame, 350-400$ range. I don't know if all titanium ones are made in Japan. Thanks.

just waiting for someone to say pit vipers

I have these, theyre the first sunglasses that I blind bought not knowing how it would fit my face. I have a really narrow face so I went to costco and had them bend it in just a little bit so the keyhole bridge sits above my nose and not ON my nose. I want to find a new pair but I cant find anything that would fit my face :( I really like aviators but those are big as fuck on me.

ps, buy them on shadestation.

>paying 200% profit margin for a $5 piece of plastic

just lmao

may aswell put your mOnEY where your mouth is otherwise this is a dumbfuck take of a shitpost lol

>>15492844

more like hand carved buffalo horn and 18k gold but wouldnt expect a pleb to understand. Living paycheck to paycheck must suck.

>>15493356
I don't have any income lol I just looked up my parents' house on Zillow and it's worth 1.4

>>15493704
So this has to be bait right?
When will the poorfag zoomers learn that not everyone has to settle for trash (uniqlo)

>>15492841
nice

>>15483900
imagine this mentality for literally anything else in your casual wardrobe except maybe denim

>>15494351
$50 is more than enough to get a nice pair of sunglasses. It's 20oz of plastic, it doesn't need to cost $1000

>>15494436
>I don't have any income
Why are you acting like you have any idea what you're talking about? I wouldn't be surprised if you don't own any clothing or accessories that retailed over $300. Don't go parading around like you're someone who's opinion matters if you have zero experience on the subject.
Poorfag zoomers man ...

Does anyone know what type of glasses these are? Or something similar?

>>15482363
We cannot recommend stuff without knowing ur facial structure or face. Would make shit easier

>>15490729
I wish I knew how to judge lol. I mean the frame is solid, doesn't feel like it will break, comfortable to wear for hours with no adjustment of the bridge.

I didn't buy mine full price tho, there's usually a lot of second hand sellers on ebay/grailed/poshmark.

>>15494940
?? I grew up in wealth lol. All this luxury shit is new to you because you've been poor most of your life. I'm telling you that I see through it because I've lived it since I was born. It doesn't phase me, it doesn't impress me. You're like kids in 1980 being impressed with Galaga or whatever meanwhile I've been playing Red Dead 2 since the day I was born.
Have fun with your $1,000 toy sunglasses though, I'm sure you'll get a lot of pussy in those.

>>15496378
Hahaha I've never been the guy who's buying the sunglasses. Also, your parents 1.4 million dollar home puts you firmly in the middle class. Once you finally graduate highschool and get out of your parents house, you'll realize how silly you sounded.
btw there's a uniqlo thread up, that seems like its more your speed.

>>15496449
1.4 is not middle class?

>>15496455
you're a retard if you think a 1mil house means "rich" lol.
