    You give such good advice. Thank you!
    My collection is four pairs, none clear. That last pair is exactly what I need, a "Swiss Army knife" of glasses. The frame, the Adaptive Sun gradient brown, (but maybe with a red flash), all perfect.

    I couldn’t agree more with you regarding lens tinting. I purchased a pair of Silhouettes with a yellow lens and haven’t looked back. My next purchase will be another pair of Silhouettes (TMA) with a 25% tint of pure yellow. Great videos, I appreciate the content! 💪🏽🇺🇸

    I love that purple tint on your clear grey frames. I was thinking similar lines for JMM Taos in Tempest colour (light clear grey frame). With light rose or purple tint for indoor and transition to Amethyst outdoor.
    Also what do you suggest for light indoor tint on JMM Ichikawa frame in black. I don't think I would like transition on that as it is so much a sophisticated optical frame. Tint just gives bit of attitude I feel.

    I just got tinted glasses today! It was a brown tint of 50%. Now I'm wishing I researched and asked people more about different colors... so hoping I like them 🤞
    Got them for ADHD. I never thought of myself as being sensitive to light, but in loud, busy or open I'm environments my brain does start to feel overwhelmed, and also florescent lights do make me feel a little off... so hoping the tints help my world feel a little smaller and easier to focus on the moment.

    You mentioned how when you took off your sweet violet pair everything seemed a bit dull. I understand it looking different however what you see without a tint surely is the most accurate in terms of colours? Any tint will enhance a particular part of the colour spectrum I would’ve thought - and while one might choose to do that - it’s not 100% accurate as nature intended esp if you’re outdoors? I appreciate all the effort you put into your videos btw.

    Right now I can only afford one pair of glasses. Now if money wasn’t an issue… I’d have more than one pair of tinted glasses. When specifically out doing photography I’d want the pioneer photo fusion, then the sweet violet for style and calming, and one more to coordinate with outfits. Don’t want a tint on my only pair I’m getting though because my night vision is poor so I need as much light coming through as possible.

    I like the idea off having a eyewear wardrobe but just can't justify spending £500 to £1000 per each pair (I need progressive lenses) especially considering in two years my prescription will probably change meaning all pairs would need replacing again. The adaptive sun with the gradient tint, could you use them for driving at night or are they too dark for that?

    At 10:30, your brown "Adaptive Sun" Reykjavik Eyes glasses with a gradient of 75% up top and 25% on bottom are far more transparent indoors than I would expect them to be. It looks like the tint is only at 40% on top. It could be your camera adjusting for exposure that makes them look lighter in the video. Still, these are my favorite pair of glasses on you. You look like Bond, James Bond.

    I have been using glasses for all my life, and I definitely don't find it practical to have a broad range of very specific glasses - maybe because mine are needed every day and everywhere, so I start with my glasses 1st thing in the morning and I wear them until going to sleep, for all tasks I do each and every day. Just considering going around with a collection of specific glasses for each activity is a nightmare. Maybe having one for every day and a special one for some occasions - maybe a formal event - would be ok. I'd go for one excellent jack of all trades, offering the closest to ideal visual support for every occasion, in and outdoors.

    • @thespectaclefactory

      I understand where you're coming from. I personally switch my glasses when I get in the car, if I go out for a walk, when I get home and if I get changed to go out somewhere. I really don't see the inconvenience in that since I would change my shoes and other accessories in most of those situations too. It doens't mean carrying multiple pairs at all times.

Long ago I gave separate sunglasses a try as a 2nd pair, but it didn't work for me - photocromic on a single pair or nothing was the conclusion.

And I’d steer away from your “environmentalism” angle IIWY. Environmentalists don’t own several pairs of fashion glasses. You can talk about environmentalism, just not as it relates to you.
