Yikes.

Ugh! Hang tough bro. Hope it works out. I’ve got an uninsured international package lost in limbo too. Weeks have turned to month(s) at this point. Hoping for a happy surprise one day.

17 days later, and after being literally left at a construction site in Venice by UPS my glasses miraculously made their way back to me. Hoping I can spread a bit of my luck on to you @Mizmazzle !

I haven't seen any photos of these online but I found them at a good price and took a gamble, and I think they might be my favorite pair I own now. Really tempted to maybe sell another pair to justify buying the Havana colorway while I still can. I was worried the gold would be a little too flashy but gosh I love them.

@october-rust those are slick dude!! Congrats. Glad they made it safely into your hands. One day, just maybe, that lefty will be on my shoulders!!

Very cool.

So it looks like the Dealan 53 isn't on JMM's site anymore, and there don't seem to be any pairs in stock anywhere — anybody have any insight into this? Discontinued?

[pechelman]

@popvulture I think I had read on the styleforum thread that it was being discontinued a few months back. Is there one you're looking for in particular? Feel like ive seen a few for sale on the fb group recently.

[popvulture]

@pechelman nah, just sort of wondering — I had a pair of 53s a while back but now have a pair of the regulars (the ones for sale in my thread). I've got a pretty big head, so the 53s are really sort of ideal for my face, but I prefer the more aggressive lines of the regular Dealan. I'd love it if they'd reintroduce the 53 with a little more of that original Dealan DNA. Who knows.

[pechelman]

ah, gotcha. and yes, completely agree on the sizing vs styling of the differently dealans. The 53's were my first and still favorite pair of JMM's. The regular dealans fit but felt a little small for me too.

[popvulture]

Yeah, I was never really sure why the bigger size needed to be more subdued. We'll see if they make a return — I'm totally curious what they have planned.

[october rust]

Damn, that’s a bummer because I agree - I really prefer the 53 on my face and they seem to draw the most questions and compliments when I wear them so I’d assume they’re universally liked.

[popvulture]

I feel like there could be a chance they’re just off of the site because they don’t have any production runs planned at the moment

[pechelman]

The word from styleforum hoarders with good insight from their dealers was that everyone was trying to move 53s out of their inventory before they were being discontinued. But I really can't confirm what they're going to do.

[JDelage]

We were in Mexico City just before Christmas, and we found a shop with a very large selection of JMM frames. Got to try the Aida andDuke 2. I think they both fit me reasonably well.

[october rust]

Nice one @JDelage - Silverdeer, right? I was impressed with their selection of JMM AND Iron Heart the last time I went.

[JDelage]

The shop was Colima 112.

[mclaincausey]

Those are both great. I tried a similar model to the first one in titanium with blue lenses and it was all I could do not to buy. Their beta titanium frames are incredible.

[october rust]

@JDelage thanks for the heads up! I’ll be out there next month, I’ll make sure to check it out.

I've got a pair of the ICU frames fitted with prescription lenses. They've very light and beautifully made, as with all other JMM products. I'd recommend them.
