Jacques Marie Mage - Wolves, Obnoxious Acetate and The American Dream

[Easily Amused]

They are both fixed up nice and tight. Might be my imagination, but they feel more secure than when I first purchased them. The dealer recommended to NOT store them in their JMM-provided leather sleeves when not in use.

Those leather sleeves are worthless.

 

[teddieriley]

Never do. They’re too tight. And I’m not going to risk smashing the frames to loosen up the case.

I really like those two pairs, so congrats. Would like to see the Kobos on you?. My Fellinis in Hickory are on the way and I think I will wear them alot.

Away from home so I can't take any better pictures. Here's what I have from earlier in the week. Excuse my bed head and the bathroom mirror streaks ?


It's going to take some time getting used to how big these are. The frame is gorgeous to look at in hand. I know I've said this before but rootbeer truly is such an amazing color. I've rationalized that these are different enough from my Hickory Fellinis, to keep. However, if I can pull it off is another thing entirely. Fellinis I can throw on with no worries but if I want to wear these it takes little more effort planning my outfits.

Speaking of the Fellinis, I just read you're going to be returning them. A little bummed because I love the frame shape so much. I still highly recommend picking up a pair in the future! Some great colors releasing soon.

This is one of the best Kobo fits I’ve ever seen.

Agree. He can pull them off well

That’s reassuring, I appreciate the kind words ??

Glad I took a gamble on the kobos

Long shot here but anyone know where I could pick up a pair of the Sturges in Tan? Debating between this colorway (if I can find it) and Argyle...
suppose Hickory too- although I have a pair of the Taos in Rootbeer which seems to be very similar to Hickory

I saw the argyle ones at 1269. Worth calling them. Hickory should be rolling out to stockists or already have, shouldn’t be too difficult to find. Tan is gonna be tough.

Thoughts on the Argyle? I haven't seen this colorway in person. Should mention too I'm open to a used pair in the Tan.

its the best color in the brownish solids IMO (Havana 1-5, lava, agar, dark Havana etc)

sturges are able to showcase the color variations because they’re thicker frames

 

[SimModa]

Kaine and Sturges are the ones to go for in Argyle. Beautiful color.

I agree, they are lovely and keepers. However I have a bunch of sunnies from different makers and my collection must stop somewhere someday. I am not Sir Elton John.
