Congatulate @Madame Buttonfly they were an Xmas prezzie from her
And I am still waiting for a replacement pair of Maui Jims (remember @Giles you borrowed mine for a fishing trip and lost them?)
I have a long memory

Never heard of the brand before but just picked up a prescription pair! Decent price and plenty of frame styles.

My Dita Insider Mk l glasses with corrective lenses

I took a gamble and ordered up the Jacques Marie Mage Clark in white from Matches Fashion. (Free shipping to Australia and free returns meant it wasn't too much of a risk.)
I'm going to get the lenses replaced with a set of Essilor Style Mirrors in blue, made up in my prescription.

Does anyone else wear Oliver People’s? Pretty much the only frames I’ve worn for the last decade.

Just picked up the JMM Hemmings in the shade color. Liked them so much I got the NOIR and the Havana on preorder. These glasses are truly a work of art.

Hi everyone, newbie here; this is a bit niche for a first real post, but this seems like the right place to ask it!
Does anyone know how to get Hakusan Megane glasses outside of Japan (U.S. specifically), or had any luck doing so? I get two hits for a "hakusan" general search on the forum, though only one mentions a lead on finding a pair, and that was for Australia. I apologize if I missed some past contextual mentions.
I'm hoping to track down a pair of their "St Titan Boston"s. It seems like most/all modern optical brands have moved towards thickness for acetate pairs but thinness for wire frames (bordering on flimsy). Hakusan's wire-frame glasses are an obvious and beautiful exception in my opinion:
I really love the hinges and arms in particular. So many modern wire-frames have a blocky hinge with a thin arm connected to it, so I love how seamless and sturdy these are.
I'd love to hear if anyone has had luck getting these in the States, especially since I hear they insist on in-person fittings (which I absolutely respect, but sadly cannot attend).
