Official what prescription frames/glasses do you fellars own?

[ToucanSam]

I'm in the mood for a new pair of prescriptions and have no idea what path/design to go.

Post up some pictures of your frames so I can be be inspired.

 

[Bandwagonesque]

Eyeglasses: RayBan RB5027 in brown. They've seen better days.
Sunglasses: RayBan Caravans in Gunmetal w/ green lenses

I have had good luck with prodesigns from Denmark

prodesign

I own these (first picture is exact, second is close - I could not find the exact frame online...)

 

[MCsommerreid]

Bvlgari BV1011T. Nearly weightless, and good and strong.

Though with rimless you have to worry about issues at the corners of the glass where they connect with the frames.

 

[Mark from Plano]

Glasses: Ermenegildo Zegna in both tortoise and black

Sunglasses: Rayban Wayfarers in both tortoise and black

My lanvin frames

 

[Tarmac]

I have a terrible time finding an optician who can accept my insurance (VSP) but also has something better than the Luxottica cookie cutter frames. Do you guys have any tips for this?

 

[leftover_salmon]

Prada VPR63F (mine are in brown, though, with copper lens frames).

 

[J'aimelescravates]

Rayban RX 6076

 

[Joffrey]

Glasses: random pair from eye store. Will upgrade to Paul Smith or Mykita (maybe RL) pretty soon.

Sunglasses: American Optical pilot sunglasses

Jhane Barnes Parallel in gunmetal

We all seem to be fond of squarish frames =)

 

[Fade to Black]

I highly dislike glasses made by fashion labels. Just like watches from fashion labels. I dunno, I think it's best to buy things from brands that have a history of originally producing those goods...

Mine are Vice Consul model by Oliver Goldsmith.

 

[California Dreamer]

Prescription: Carrera titanium rimless.
Sunnies: Rudy Projects for the bike, RL frames for the rest.

The Carreras p*** me off. I'm always putting them down and losing them. Being totally see-through they vanish against any background and short-sighted me can never find the damn things. I am replacing them with my next pay cheque, so this is a great thread for me.
