Love how you show the website and options and tint % 🤓 thanks
The Lagos (that you styled for me) is my favourite frame from my collection. There's just something about it - a little bit catseye (which is very uncharacteristic of my style) that is softened by the unique crystal colouration. The faceted browline softens the catseye form, and adds a new dimension to it. It's somehow bold yet doesn't shout - it's CONFIDENT!
I don't say this lightly, as I have at least a few other frames in the same class/category (won't be mentioning brands/models).
It's such a cool frame, and I'm glad you chose it!
I love that LA eyeworks uses ACTUAL hand pinned rivets, not shields. It drives me up a wall when manufacturers make a beautifull pair of glasses just to put shileds on, or fake rivets just to put a heat sunk hinge behind it (ahem...JMM). Big chunky frames feel more solid with riveted hinges.
Thanks for this! I wanted to know your thoughts on Cubitts Glasses ?
The Rainbow Amortini will always be my favorite LA Eyeworks piece after Wally ❤️❤️❤️
It's a cool piece. I have one kept aside as I think it will be valuable in the future
I got the twill for my first pair of prescription glasses. They are pretty traditional rectangle, but I like the classic and basic style in a quality frame.
Their custom frames are wonderful. Their ready to wear frames are actually made in China, sadly.
I needed this because I want to make my L.A. Eyeworks "Wells" in Dirty Martini to have some super fly lenses 🎉🎉
Earlier seasons of RuPaul's Drag Race introduced me to this brand.
👍
Love my LA Eyeworks Wally's.....👓🕶️👌
They look epic on you!
Most opticians in London don't seem to stock these, and when I ask why, they normally say that they used to stock LA eyeworks but stopped due to quality control issues.
They are entitled to their opinion I guess
The Hardy is nice. They are all incredible.
Yeah!
Which one do you think is better, Etnia Barcelona Brutal No. 3 BL 49, or Gucci 1265O 005 55?
i like La Eyeworks, i actually found out about the brand because of this channel. i don’t own a pair yet , I’m not too sure that i will get a pair either. JMM really does have my heart
JMM are great, but try to get out of the mindset that they are the be all and end all. There's a lot of hype around them, but just like with Rolex, true watch or glasses collectors appreciate all the best manufacturers and not just one
Great glasses. It's a shame many of their best (or most appealing to me) acetates seem to only be on their more feminine shapes; Phoenix, Neapolitan, Blotter, Jelly Cake. But I suppose most makers skew more heavily towards mens', so it's probably fair enough.
I totally agree. There's only the Lagos in their entire catalogue which I would actually wear myself, and even that is slightly feminine. I guess the brand being created by two women does lend itself to that.
@@thespectaclefactory I was wearing the Lagos that you did for me just today. I don't wear them often, but when I do they make an impact. The Kola in Bengal with the orange tint that we did are one of my favorites though.
Is that a blue-blocking lens on those Hardys, or is it a flash coating? (The lenses look a little yellow in the video)...Interested!
What is your opinion on Tony Wolf glasses?
Zeiss or hoya?
Which of these two brands is better for prescription glasses???
Please do video on Peter & May
HI, Robert, how is the hoya new oceanic blue for someone who is already wearing a progressive lens -8.00+ and who seldom wear sunglasses? Victor from Malaysia
Hi! I reviewed it here: ua-cam.com/video/6erDEjAxNBo/v-deo.htmlsi=6QdxrIdFk06EDRny
If you don't mind for future video.. please review DIOR
Only problem is that BP Domino 55 midnight blue is still unavailable after more than 6 month waiting. Will they ever make them again?
I wouldn't touch BP now since the LVMH takeover. I'd give up on the Domino now. Get the Wally instead.
Lagos is pure class
💯
The Wally looks super cool. Compared to my joe from Barton Perreira 52-20-148, are they comparable in size. And hmmm maybe I could pull off blue
And I looked up the price……way outta my league hehe
La eyeworks is from Japan? All please let me know! Tnx and regards
In my opinion based on design, quality, and panache the winner by a knockout is.... Jacque Marie Mage
Why do you generally advise avoiding rectangular frames? Is it just the boring factor, or is there more to it?
Yes, he’s said in previous videos multiple times that rectangular are boring/basic/unoriginal. But he’s also made a short on the best rectangular frames that has some good options
A bit bummed Roswell didn't make the list.
It would have been #6!
Dita.
If you were going to say Dita then you would have to say Masunaga, since they produce Dita frames...
@@thespectaclefactory Hi, Dita opened their own factory back in 2018. It seemed to be a big deal since they were one of the few independent factories to do so. Do you happen to know which models they produce out of that factory and which may be produced by Masunaga? I've always been curious.
On a similar note, do you know who else makes other brands' eyewear? We know brands like Jacques Marie Mage, Chrome Hearts, and pretty much most of the industry are more designers and not manufacturers, so they all outsource their manufacturing to someone. I'd love to know who produces what product for which brands. Stuff like this is interesting. Many years back, Luxottica bought a majority stake in Fukui Megane, which is why Ray-ban started their "Made In Japan" titanium eyewear.
Do another Cartier review.. let us know about those custom lenses w that hinge on the side. I wana get my lenses redone
Now who do The best titanium frame in the world?
Best as in functional = Reykjavik Eyes. Best as in craftsmanship could be any of several Japanese manufacturers
@@thespectaclefactoryBest as in design and craftmanship,rn im looking for jmm marbot or matsuda m3114,m3101. Chrome hearts is too expensive.
Ths for the reply
I do get why they are cool, but as you stated, they are just not for me. Not sure why though
Same here. Appreciate the craftsmanship but not the the style. Too funky for my taste.
Same
I'd get them as stylish sunglasses esp the clear frames maybe but as dailies... nah
Combination of acetate and titanium like alta from jmm is pretty cool though imo
This is the very first video I disagree with your scoring on. You have L.A. Eyeworks a 9 out of 10 on Style, and an 8 out of 10 on originality. I was born and raised in L.A. The home of Zsa Zsa Gabor and the Marlboro Man lit up on Sunset Blvd. L.A. is pink and green and filled with kitsch, smog, crime, and... Miley Cyrus. You are what you drive. L.A. is not my thing and so I moved to NYC. Even so, L.A. Eyeworks captures perfectly an ideal of L.A. I give them a 10 out 10 on both Style and Originality. Again, not my thing but I bow to L.A. Eyeworks. They are a creative vision. I'd rather have Masunaga or Maison Bonnet, perfection made manifest and... timeless.
You show only luxury and most expensive frame !!!!! What is a purpose of those videos?
No I don't...
