CC can u chime in on this?


It is possible to get it done, BUT it will change the look. The charge of the key hole bridge is that it sits close to the nose and gives it a bit of shape. I can't recall anyone wearing a keyhole with a nose pad arm implant, but I have seen people put on silicone stick pads.

Ahh silcone is not going to cut it as I don't got a nose for it. My measurement is usually 17, these glasses have a 22. Can you suggest another brand with similar style and quality to the one im looking for that is more asian friendly? Thanks

I'd like an outside opinion. Do people find these too large for me?

Sorry for the cell phone quality.

Are these SF sunglasses cool? I have a pair of Tortoise Shell Ray Ban Wayfarers (new style) that are my go-to glasses. I was thinking of picking up the SF glasses in black.

I'm also interested in some Dior sunglasses, but their website is so horrible I can't even be knackered to give it a shot.

Scooter goggles are awesome! I have some too. I wear contacts with my goggles but sometimes I try to stuff my glasses under it. Some of my glasses (like the thinner ones) work better than others (bigger plastic ones). But it's kind of a waste if you aren't going to use the contacts all day and only for when you're scootin.
