Walker makes you look like a rock star.

Taos Hopper is more generic looking by comparison.

Both suit you, but it’s the Walker that looks special.

Hmm this new Vendome looks like a model that already exists, but I'm not going to complain. I prefer the classic shapes.

I bet this would probably look better on my face than the chunky, telescoping Ascari. I do crave that ultra thick acetate look though.
I know, they look similar to the JAX…but the lines look a bit sharper.

Anyone open (preferrably from EU) open for swap? I have brand new Enzo Shadow 2 which I love and I think they fit me great.
Today however, I tried Dealan Bloodstone RX and they might be even better. So, if anyone is up to Enzo-Dealan swap/trade send me a PM.
Having both is... well, hard on my wallet.

Dealans have to be brand new or in "like new" condition. Black, Agar, demi tortoise, darker tortoise, Black fade 1... RX versions work as well.
Temple wire (silver or gold) must be visible/exposed.

Take care guys!

Sorry to spam folks. I need to take a break from this thread. So addicting. After a few comments on how the Walker Fade is similar to the Kaines and Plaza I have, and after some feedback from friends, I tried on a pair of Hopper in Marquina, which are nice. Perhaps a bit more different in the collection. Most friends preferred the Hopper, but my partner said they may be a bit too feminine looking for me, so now I'm torn. Their logic was that a taller (deeper?) frame fills up my face better and is more proportional than the thinner wider style options.

Have you considered a different color of the Taos? I also think they look good on you and not feminine, though maybe it was the large rounded shape that she's getting was at. My pick for the Taos personally hasn't been the black, though. Hickory/root beer (can't remember which one they make for the Taos) or army you might feel differently, as they can leave quite a different impression.

Just added my second pair, Camu in Vintage Havana... Noticed there is not one comment on here about the Camu's! Went in looking for Fellinis, and walked out with these. Fairly old stock from my understanding. View attachment 1807928
My partner's coworker has a Camu - not for me, personally, but different strokes. It looks good on her coworker and I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Congrats!
