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

I’m thinking they sold whatever they had available for pre-sale. Of the 200, a bunch of those go to retailers as well. And since their production tends to run behind, they may be releasing in batches as they’ve done previously.

Yes, I think you might be right.

Really digging the Dealan on you. I feel they can be difficult to pull of for men but they look great on you!

I also didn't like the Dealan initially and thought it is rather feminine, but once I tried it on, I totally changed my mind: it's a great frame for men, really classic and versatile.

 

[DorianGreen]

whats a bigger fit molino 55 or dealan 53

According to the measurements the Molino 55 should fit larger than the Dealan 53, but I have no direct experience, as I only have both in the classic size, 51 for the Molino and 50 for the Dealan.

Challenger in Agar available again on the JMM site. Something went wrong, as not seldom. Or is it strategy?

This happens fairly frequently on their website. I wouldn't look that far into it lol.

Yes, it happens rather frequently that a supposedly sold-out frame comes on sale again. Just curious to know if this is a sort of strategy, or they simply don't have a whole control on the sales and the stocks.

Thanks and yeah, I was definitely surprised by how much I like them!

For me 1 and 2 look good, 3 is my least favorite. I also usually think I know what I am going to want until I go in and try stuff on, and then it's often the opposite.

Congrats on finding some good frames, though. Good lookin dude.

Cheers! It's one of the reasons I can't buy frames online, they always turn out differently from what I was expecting

They all look good, but I prefer the Dealan.

Thanks, definitely seems to be the consensus!

Dealan - Yes. The frame stands out, it fits well and defines well. Dark Havana colour does provide a definition. Usually me being brown skin, light brown on brown skin mutes the look and doesn't go well on my skin tone. But with that Dealan, you are nailing that look! Oval shape face really compliments with that frame. That cat eye shape gets softens and gives you a great look. First sight at that frame, my mind want to come to you and say, great frame mate! I wish I can pull off Dealan.

1) Insley - Nah! Looked more like Harry Potter in acetate frame. Not a good look. Brown frame on brown skin doesn't go well. It mutes the aspect of definition of the frame.

2) Fountainbleau - It's okay. Perhaps may look good if you are dressed up in suit. But on T-Shirt or casual outfits, it blahs out a bit. Even though eyes are in the centre, it just feels like there is so much empty space surrounding the eyes. The frame looks more floating rather than fitting stylishly. If you want to go in round shape, then try Henri or the one from their Kyosho collection. They would look good.

Love the Harry Potter comment! I would have been stoked to have heard that about 10-15 years ago.

If you want just one frame, as the most suggested, you should choose the Dealan, but if you want to build a collection, you could also get two or even three. You could then wear them according to your mood and your different outfits.

Anyone in NYC see a Challenger in store yet?

Been looking for lightweight optical frame and I came across the Jagger thru the sales recommendation. I wonder what you guys think of the fit? Somehow optical frame for me tend to look better when oversized compare to sunglasses. I only worn square and rectangular shapes and this is first time trying an aviator style

Personally not a fan. The thinness of the wire frame is heavily emphasized with the clear lenses, and it makes the frame look really flimsy. Much different look than when it has sun lenses.

I like the feather wirecore on the Wesley

I like the feather wirecore on the Wesley View attachment 1954193

Said it before …
First I got into JMM

Then three dots didn’t do it for me, I had to have them with exposed wire

Then horizontal engraved lines didn’t do it for me, I had to have them with symbols / patterns!

The feather looks cool, also the checkerboard I’ve seen on one of the new ones.

As far as engraving goes - keep ‘’em coming JMM!
