Havershaw do you have any contact info for Alex at Optical Sphere, email or phone number? Unfortunately I don't think i'll make it to LA anytime in the foreseeable future.
My problem is that my wife use to be an optician an knowsYep. I kind of took a chance, because the bridge on these is smaller than what I normally wear. But on the really old Tarts, I've found that the bridge tends to be a little bigger than it's marked. My 42-24 brownsmokes that are super early Tart have a bridge that measures out to 25mm. I can comfortably go down to 22. So I was hoping, like my older brownsmokes, that the bridge would be a little bigger, and sure enough, it measures 21.
(you know they're really early Tart if there are no stamps on the arms.)
Those Johnny Depp glasses are cool, but they just look like 80s Wayfarers to me.
Seems to me the classic 30s sun glasses (invariably called cheaters at the time; shades is later, hipster lingo) would be round, probably with the bows at midpoint rather than up top, with light colored frames and green lenses.
Seeing these reminds me of the other pair I picked up in Barcelona last year.
It was between those and the others with which I got changed into specs, though I think I made the right decision.
