So have been trying to find fit pics of the Kaine but it doesn’t appear to be too popular here. I’ve only noticed @Easily Amused who has actually purchased them and @d4nimal tried them on. Too squared and basic for most here?

Was originally looking for a Taos but I can’t find a colorway i like that’s still available.
Try the FB Group "Jacques Marie Mage Collectors." I was looking through it yesterday and am fairly sure I saw some Kaine fits.

FWIW, though, it's not one of my favorites personally. Esp not as a substitute for Taos.

I love my Kaine’s in platinum

Does anyone know what these frames are? Think they're my next cop, kind of like a less extreme Ascari.

EDIT: nvm, JMM just posted on their story, these are the Suze.

Per JMM's Instagram story, that's called the Suze.

I dropped by my local shop today and my guys told me as soon as I walked in the door they just got the Domoto in the shop in all flavors and were unboxing them at that moment. They weren't even sure what the price was yet.

They're a lot lighter than I thought they'd be, kinda like the other opticals with spring hinges. I love the frontal geometry, though I prefer the regular hinges, personally.

I've been trying to think what these glasses remind me of and I finally figure it out

Some non-JMM frames that I've been looking at that have a JMM vibe, for those who might be interested.

Cutler & Gross 1386 Optical Squares. Unfortunately sold out in more versatile colors, but maybe they'll restock.

I like how they look on Ben here:




Also Cartier Premiere glasses. A whopping 58mm. Also available in 18k gold if you want to spend $10,000 on a pair of sunglasses. (Regular version is $1k, so closer to JMM). Has a cool sleazy vibe.

If anyone is interested in a trade, I'm looking for the Kaine (or maybe Yves)! Still trying to find a home for my Molino in Argyle.
