The Ray Ban's original Clubmaster design is hard to beat, IMHO.

Thanks @Thin White Duke . Regarding the Hickory Molinos… I was wavering most of yesterday on them. Then I looked back through this thread and saw how the Hickory color looked on you with your Deleans, and I went ahead! So thank you for the inspiration :)
Whoah praise indeed! Cheers matey!
Slightly kicking myself that I didn’t jump on the good deal after all but I have some others incoming.
*Looks back at thread for link to discount deal*

I just keep thinking about the Walker preorder and trying to figure out how to swing it. The clear would be cool with a lightly tinted prescription lens too.

**** photoshop as I’m on mobile but somethings like this. Less extreme of course, softer colors.

I’ve got a pair of Oliver People’s Cabrillo in clear acetate with blue lenses, a bit like your example on the left and they not only look great but are a very versatile pair of shades that work with a ton of different outfits formal and casual so that would be my favoured combo from what you posted. Pics of mine here ...

By the way, if anyone owns the Scarpa or Altamont titanium sunglasses, could you please post fit pics/ in-the-wild pics?

Hi guys. Been watching this JMM thread for sometime now. I have just taken delivery of my third pair of JMM – Taos in Army. This colourway with the gold hardware is simply stunning. Not sure my wallet can cope with this addiction.

I've never seen anything like that Mira sale, and I've been following JMM for ~5 years now. Then again, I didn't know about the Mira sale, so I could have missed something else. Mr. Porter is the best I've seen consistently otherwise. When Moda Operandi started phasing out their mens, I saw some Fitzgeralds for $300s but that was about it.
