Do you resemble any of the persons pictured above? If so, the sunglasses you posted are perfectly appropriate.

You are new to the forum so let me tell you that that picture was a joke and the general tastes of the majority of the people who post here would not be in line with those sunglasses. I personally would not wear them and I do not think you will get too many positive replies to your question. That being said, you should realize that there is no such thing as a sunglass expert and if you like the sunglasses buy them. I would just advise you to poke around the forum a bit and use the search function before you do. Also be prepared for the fact that if you do buy those shades most people on the street who see you in them will think you are a tool - not that you should care, but you should be aware.

I think they could be either, depending on what you intend to use them for. I'm no expert, but there are distinct "scenes" that are accepting of different looks. Without knowing more about your circle, the types of girls you're trying to get, the weed you smoke, the shoes you wear, how many buttons you leave undone, these sunglasses may be outrageous or subdued. For my part, I mostly buy clothes/accessories to impress guys on the internet.

Yeah and are they Blake stiched or Goodyear welted? Because if they're not Goodyear, there is no way the retail is worth it.

HMM, do I say what I think?


So, I would perhaps either post this question in the Streetwear section.

Those glasses have no staying power and with that said, are not anything worth investing.

Do you want to look trendy

Those glasses are made only for hermaphrodites. It even says so in the literature booklet that it comes with (which has 3/4 canvass that is machine stitched).
