So order other frames. They all look fairly similar to me... I think they should add a few round frames as well - something in a perfect circle available in a light mottled brown (what they call sandalwood) would even out the collection.

My WP Huxleys just arrived. The tortoiseshell is darker than it appears on the website, but in a good way. They're a keeper -- Already got two compliments.

I got WP Sibley in Revolver Black - love them so far, lots of compliments, etc. Got them as more of a cheap wear at home to let the eyes rest from contacts pair, but they really are pretty good despite being dirt cheap and chinese-made.

I think they need to do two things - offer a set of sunglasses/tinting options, and get a round frame tortoiseshell design in the catalog.

Just got a pair from them and am very very pleased with the quality and the speed of service. I told them that I'd buy some sunglasses if they would just make them, and they replied that a line will be debuting in the spring.

I got two pairs a few months ago. The Sibley in black and the Willoughby in tennessee whiskey.

They did feel a bit cheap to start with. I've got an enormous head and they used to creak a bit until they adjusted to it. Now they're fine, but the lenses do seem to get dirty incredibly easily.

Also, they don't ship to the UK which is a pain.

+1 -- are these new frames, or just the option of tinted lenses in the current ones? I'd be fine with either, I guess.
