does anyone have the Hartanas? If not what’s the general consensus? I want an all metal pair for a Rx? Thoughts? I know my sizing it’s just pics of these on anyone in the real world is hard to come by

Selfie that was never intended to be published but here’s mine. Bought them for the exact same reason as you. The nose pads leave a little to be desired, they bend relatively easy and on such a small frame I feel like it looks cockeyed a lot. I’m really easy on my glasses and they still seem to bend a lot more than any of my other metal frames so that’s my only drawback so far. I’m just constantly adjusting. Great looking pair though.

I'm a big fan of the titaniums from JMM. My favourites are Scarpa's, Beauregards and Jaggers. I find all of them an incredible sensible craft, no problems with the pads or anything.
I also have a pair of Harcourts that I'm thinking of letting go because are too similar with other pairs I have. If anyone is interested, I can let them for a good price compared to the listing one.
Cheers!

All of mine are tremendous except the hartana so far I’m not sure what the deal is. I have the Brion the Reynold and the Seberg (which I’m probably letting go cause I prefer the Beauregard). All built like tanks. And the hartana is too just the nose pads that are weird. I’m sure it’s an isolated incident so that’s not a reason to avoid them.

Those fit you well nonetheless @haydenriley328i !
Also the metal pads can be found in some acetate frames as well - for example the Cortina's

No the Umit wirecore is crescent moon and another diamond shape symbol.
My Umit dealans haven’t shipped yet, and my Belize are the tokyo tort so it’s only exposed on the interior arm, but the wirecore is the same for all 4 models

Belize:

I'm starting to think the Wirecore designs are inspired by Lucky Charms marshmallows.

Had the opportunity to try the Enzo-Sunkiss today, really nice colorway...too big for me though :(

…man I hear ya I wish I could make the Enzo work for me. The Ascari works but JMM refuses to have any good color ways. Meanwhile the Enzo gets all the color ways….

I’m also really eyeing the Ashcroft. Trying to get some details on color ways etc.

Ascari also works for me, but only like the Vintage Tort ;)

The Ashcroft also catched my eye!

Btw my Vendome Camel are also getting darker lenses. The new Dealan Camel come with darker lenses.

+1 here for the Enzo’s.. I feel like they cover my entire face and ending up with the frame wearing me, not the other way around how it should be. In the same time for example in the new lookbook the amazing feminine model is rocking them.
