Second this I would be interested in Prada rep sunglasses also.
I can't seem to find them thru the normal places I get my Raybans and Oakleys on Aliexpress

This was a great purchase guys, no complaints whatsoever.
A nice Balmain shirt for only 20-23 bucks. [emoji7][emoji7]

For the life of me, I cannot think of reason why I would want to show off my Dunlop's or give them face time with the public. Might be a nice feature for a curtsy lunge of sorts.

The Balmain stuff is like designer biker stuff.....i guess its styled after real riding gear which has side vents and their pants have pockets in weird areas.....once again after riding gear
I don't think sellers on taobao ship outside of China. You have to pay using their alipay service as well. It's kinda like China's version of eBay and paypal

I had no idea. It kind of reminds me of Michael Jackson's outfits back in his "Beat It" days.

Hey all, so I ordered some Oliver Peoples Riley-K in light tortoise a long time ago. They were about $60AUD including lenses. SO ******* cheap, my last pair of glasses were $400AUD including lenses - bought locally. The quality of the glasses were as good as my expensive ones, and the lenses - to me - looked better, I'm guessing because all of the ali stores use aspheric lenses and the ones I got locally are spherical. Anyway, I wore them for a few months but I was unhappy with them - the shape looked kind of girly to me so I went looking to buy some Gregory Pecks.
Now it was hard for me to decide, there's so many to choose from but I found a couple of stores that had started offering some higher quality Oliver Peoples, so I ordered some Gregory Pecks from 1 store for me, and some Sir Finley (for me) and O'Malley (for my wife) form another store.
The Gregory Pecks were perfect, as good as the real deal - however these higher quality ones are 47mm (sunglasses size), I can pull it off with my massive head but a part of me wishes I'd purchased a lower quality pair that were slightly smaller.
The Sir Finleys - they didn't come with the signature engraves metal arm inserts like the store page promised! The glasses are great but I wish they had those arm inserts like the O'Malley/Gregory Pecks.
The O'Malleys - My wife is + prescription, they came with -! When I complained they said the prescription was right and that +/- doesn't matter. Aliexpress sided with the store so I had to create a series of images to explain the difference between long and short sightedness and eventually got a full refund. Now, these were also the sunglasses size instead of regular size, and my wife's head isn't as big as mine so I sent these to a different store and got some prescription polarized lenses put in for me.
Now all 3 stores I used have closed down, so I can't post any links, but I'll post more pictures below and the basic idea of this post is, if you wear glasses, just order online. From China.
My Gregory Pecks.
O'Malleys with polarized 1.67 lenses, wound up costing $150 total - I got quotes from every optician in Sydney and they all quoted between $450 and $850 for 1.67 aspheric polarized lenses only.
Riley-K
Sir Finley
Very nice and thanks for the info.
One question I always had re: sunglasses was how do test/insure proper protection from UV? I like the idea of saving a boatload of $ but not at the expense of my eyes.
Any thoughts on the subject?

But Michael Jackson was a hip dresser lol
And I honestly don't know. I didn't know the shirts were Balmain when I ordered them. Until they came in. I was surprised. So all the times I order from that vendor, I always ask him what brand it is before I receive it. Everything he sales for the most part is a designer name.

Hi guys I've been following this thread for a while and after the best rep of Hermes belt of anyone has a good store could they pm me please
Sorry but i am unable to get this link to work ca you please PM me the full link?
With polarized lenses, you can test if they really are polarized or not by comparing them to some polarized or nonpolaried sunglasses you already have - and if they are polarized then you know already they are UV safe because theres no fake/unsafe way to get polarized lenses.
If they are regular sunglasses lenses then I don't know, you'd have to choose a store you trust, buy a uv test kit or take them to a local opticians.
