It can last for a few years at least. I got my first Mykita over ten years back and won for a few (3-4 I think) years. They are still in good shape if I want to wear them again.@sinnedk I like those Masunagas a LOT. Those are the Swing, right? I don't think I could quite pull those off as a daily-wearer myself, but if I wanted a second pair for the occasional business trip or something those would be sweet.
I've finally joined the crew. Replacing my 10-year-old Burberries with Mykita Nigels:
Part of me still doesn't believe that spring hinge is going to hold up well over time, but they'd know better than me.
Reminds me of a young Michael Cain, in a good way.I got some Tom Ford Faustos a few months ago. Never had so many people compliment me on my glasses. It happens every few days.

I love the glasses. I personally wouldn’t wear them indoors though.What's your opinion on rocking lightly tinted JMM like these indoor?
Any recommendations for glasses similar to the Vuarnet Glacier?
What's your price range and what are you specifically looking for? Do you want the same exact shape or do you want the side shields? Are you wearing them for performance or just looks?
Anyways some suggestions:
For performance Salt optics had a collaboration with Aether and made 2 sunglasses with side shields. I think they were advertised as being used for motorcycle rides and other outdoor activities. Price I think was around the Vuarnet Glaciers though (~$600)
For looks Linda Farrow makes frames with the side shields. The brand in general is expensive though.
If you're looking for something cheap you can wear to Burning Man you can google "Steampunk sunglasses". You'll find a ton or results, most of them cheap some vintage.
@ericleavitt it's hard to say man. You should try on a bunch of frames and take pics either in store or from something like Warby Parker where they mail it to you and post them in here.
@CityConnection You seem extremely well versed on eyewear, have you ever considered starting your own label?
