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

May be in the minority, but I think the Enzos look great/the best on @sebastian mcfox

 

[WBaker]

Agreed @sebastian mcfox don't let JMM nerd nit-picking make you any less stoked on the Enzos.

 

[UrbanComposition]

For all your JMMs? it works for me .

No just the yooge ones

Well, them Cody literally swallow your face

There’s no way I’d be returning those Enzo’s. They look amazing on you Sebastian.

And while I’m fanboying, your hair is killer. I’m 39 and have begun shaving my head this past year, but all through my 20’s I used to sport the same hairstyle and dammit I miss it ?

In other news, I got my Argyle back from warranty to replace the front frame that has the loosened barrels from overheating/adjustment. They’re basically back to new again (they were a week old when they took them in), except they didn’t really fit the arms back flush, so more work is needed to get the fit back to factory.

Left side is ok and mostly flush

Right side a little off alignment

Handed in my Marquina for the same warranty replacement front frame as they too had barrel issues from overheating during adjustment.

Both the Argyle and Marquina were adjusted by my local store and they have been great to deal with, despite their poor adjustment causing the barrel issues in the first place.

The Surplus however are perfect as the guys from 1269 did an amazing job adjusting them based off measurements I sent them without affecting the barrels.

Man you guys are too kind. You’re also the best…er worst kind of enablers.

Managed to get a hold of the Enzo in Granite (Limited to 50). Wanted to go Shadow or Noir initially for versatility but the slightly darker marble compared to Agar/Havanna should work just fine with most outfits. Should receive them this week.

Now thinking about adding them
in Rover…

What's your favourite JMM(s) with metal frame? ?

I've recently received the Sexton to try on (gold beta titanium frame).

I really like how the frame feels and how the lenses look as well.
Not sure about the look, as I'm still not very good on matching sunglasses with faces.

What do you guys think?
Keep?or pass ??

 

[Paulinuhhh]

Sadly can’t wear any acetate frames since I virtually have no nose bridge and need nose pads. Thinking of getting a pair of Jaggers with amber transition lenses ?

@epX How did I miss Granite as color, love those. Would have asked the JMM rep if he had a pair if id known that was a new material floating around.

Edit, Oh looks like granite popped up with the last collection. Really dig it.

Yea its a really unique colour. For me it was a great option as I wanted the versatility of some black shades with some added pop. The Enzo Granite were part of a limited collab with a german distributor: https://www.leidmann.com/products/jacques-marie-mage-enzo-leidmann-granite?_pos=18&_sid=3e17f6f9a&_ss=r

Hadn't seen those. Really smart color/frame choice for their collab.

Seeing the Shozo for the first time - actually quite intrigued by them in camel. Has anyone tried these on, or are there available fit pics anywhere online?

I love the camel acetate in a frame I'd seen it on in the past. It seems to have the same arms shared from the Domoto and similar profile (rounded out a little more), I'd guess it wears rather similarly as well. I'd love to see more, though, myself. Where'd you see this?
