A local company in my country is currently doing wooden sunglasses frames, which is awesome but not nearly as cool. Wish I were you and taking a trip to that store </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-ever-bought-vintage-spectacle-frames#post-572869 Tue, 20 Mar 2012 18:17:51 +0000 Kirti 572869@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies, I will go check them out even if they are too heavy, it will be a fun trip to a cool store </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-ever-bought-vintage-spectacle-frames#post-572809 Tue, 20 Mar 2012 17:23:06 +0000 Meredith1953 572809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good point about the weight Diana,<br /> I know that one of the things (besides money) that keeps me wedded to my rimless titanium frames is that they are so light and comfortable! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-ever-bought-vintage-spectacle-frames#post-572742 Tue, 20 Mar 2012 16:09:34 +0000 Diana 572742@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd try them out for weight first... some vintage frames can be extremely heavy, particularly metal ones, as our materials now are a lot stronger and lighter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-ever-bought-vintage-spectacle-frames#post-572735 Tue, 20 Mar 2012 15:58:54 +0000 Jilly 572735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Why not? If you don't need seriously expensive lenses, maybe you could have them put in for you. Or if you just want to wear them for fun, you could pop out the lenses that are already there. Have fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-ever-bought-vintage-spectacle-frames#post-572725 Tue, 20 Mar 2012 15:45:10 +0000 Kirti 572725@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Or is it just a daft idea in general?</p> <p>A local vintage store just put up this pic on their FB page. All the frames are deadstock and I really like the top one on the second row from the left and the third one in the left most row. </p>
