just print this picture and bring it to an optical store

typical looking spec.. can be found anywhere. true like jind86 said. print it out and let the optical shop find it for you... if not available.. you can pre order.

I has been trying to find a good spectacle to match my squarish face, which is absolutely hard to match. i have done what the net has point out in choosing spec according to head shape but i just seems to get it right nor any attendant there in my place. So i guess its time to get some help even if not of too expert also good for me. I will make it one of my plan of coming to kl for one of the professional services.

go any shop la ... there all is profesional wat = = almost the same ~

i search around but can't find any thread. or mods like to combine topic. so i open new one.

anyone here wear spectacles? not sunglasses
what is your fav glasses design or brand?

where to buy cheap cheap frame?

Half-frame and rectengular shape. Any brand, as long as the design do justice to my face.

those big big frame is the trend right now

Thread title "Glasses, 4 eyes come in!!!" merged..

Hi everyone,

I am looking for a fake spec (spec without any power) to buy. I need it for a drama i am involved in my college.

I hv tried asking all those optometry shops but they only sell real specs.

So can someone help tell me where i can get it?

Note:

-Not looking for sunglasses.
-Not looking for those oversized specs that lalas like to wear.

Just something that resembles what a normal spec wearing person would wear.

Thx in advance.

what do u mean by they only sell real specs
just buy any specs in the shop and tell them u don't want any lenses..

I assume you looking for a cheap dummy spectacles . Just go to any night market. You could get it for Rm20 below.

oversized spec is not lala, even designers wear them as well.
(Don't simply use 'lala', coz it's show you are low fashion sense.)

the spec you searching can found anywhere, especially at the little shops sell spec in mall or night market.

night market or petaling street?

In both places, you can found them. =)

go pasar malam buy

Tesco?

During sales period Topman selling aviator glasses for less than RM20 IIRC.

oversized glasses are not lala...== many designer or fashionable ppl wear them ..... its a fashion item.... not lala,


u juz get into any optimetry shop and buy 1 with no power la...

those stalls that sells oversizes always have smaller ones...==

who are you to judge?

u r not denying that lalas wear them mostly.

what r u? a lala yourself?

stick to the topic plz.

thank you for the other polite responses.

Sorry for the words that you think is rude to you, I'm a fashion design student, and a freelance designer for wedding gown, Rtw and accessories as well.

Honestly, for those who understand more fashion and it's history, we don't use 'lala' this word in talk. Because there is no such thing in fashion term.

Well if that's the case the only reason for your displeasure could be the fact that i have put fashion designers and lalas in the same group.

That only serves to prove 1 point.

That lalas exist. You agree lalas also use those big specs. And you agree that lalas look stupid wearing them.

enough said.

peace peace... i saw like some in pyramid i guess....

yup it's exist in Malaysian word, but not in fashion term.

Yea, Pyramid has the shop selling the normal spec with no power. The glasses can take off.

ts likes troll.

hello.finally i lost my old ugly glasses, going to get a new pair.
any recommendation? hehe
I m 22yrs old.
Looking for frame that can give professional look.
Post a pic if u want to.
Budget: Below 400
My friend recommend the one which the lens can turn less transparent when exposed to sunlight but too expensive la.

You could opt for this type of glasses as you were 22.
Black plastic bold frame. Look good =D .
But make sure you choose the right frame shape.

You like full frame or half-frame?

Mine is half-frame,black,looks quite smart la,I think now most shops selling the kind of specs like mine,it's the latest fashion I think

Half-frame means the bottom part of the lens is not covered

Clubmasters

well although i dont wear glasses, but if im forced to, i think ill get oakley.

gosh.. this kind of things, it's really up to individuals... Only you yourself would know after you try on different kinds of specs in shops...

Some ppl can carry Full frame specs nicely but some ppl wears it like a fag...

Wear what you think suits you, don't just follow the trend lol...

Clubmasters seems to be the trend now.

Lol that's the latest trend?

Haha yea must suit your face shape la bro,dun folo trend

Don't buy Rayban frame. I am wearing one now and the support for the nose kept bending and shifting, causing a lot of pain and pressure on my nose. I have it fixed 3 times already within 6 months.

Im using Armani(emporio) at the moment.
Over rm500
Black frame(white at the sides).
Quite nice

oakley shifter 4.0

dude,

i used to wear wayfarers before, and its kinda heavy on the nose.... here's an example of me wearin it;


itll cost u around

frame : rayban +- RM650
glasses : cheapo MC +- rm150

but due to too many mat rempit already usin wayfarers,

i decided to change specs

try out a clubmaster... this is me with mine, lol...


frame : ebay +-RM20
glasses : hoya tinted prescription =- RM200

Oh wow that's awful,the most important thing in a specs is also comfort,it must be comfortable sitting on your nose and not slipping down

Been wearing prescription glasses for more than 11years and what I can tell you is, go try out glasses and look at the mirror before you buy. Like everyone said, different shape of face demands different glasses design.

Like myself, I looked good with half-frame but not frameless and full-frame.

Finally, you won't go wrong with Oakley's

those are nice! =D
i 2wanna get a pair of those

true. ask some1 to go buy glasses with. ask for their opinions. and depends on what impression u want to give people. smart or funky. =D

I'm kind of in the same shoes as TS. I'm 21 and i wanna get the profesional look, so i went for the oakley intake 2.0 (google for an image). it will take some time to get use with design that doesnt have an ear loop. after 2 years using it, i will say that i really love oakley design. but saying that the rubber at the back may get damaged over time. one side of mine is damaged already. but i dont really bother to repair.

oh, and the nose area is very comfortable.

Ive been wearimg glasses for almost 20++ years, i would rekcond u guys to find a good frame, either its branded or non branded but make sure:
1. It is not too tight or too small or too big for ur head. Too small resulting too much gripping and tends to hurt when u wearing for a long period. Too big means there's not much gripping and tends to fall easily.
2. Go for the spring attached frames. It'll grip better and wont go loose when ure sweating, esp. When using plastic frames.
3. This is from my personal experience so any thoughts are welcomed. If can, dont go for plastic lens. Ive been using plastic lens for about 12 years and every year my lens power seems to increased. Was advise to use glasses lens and since then there's minimum increase in myy lens power.

Hope this will at least help u in choosing a good glasses for a long run.

I'm wearing this .. bought it for rm1.4k 3 years ago, still going strong and looks unique !

using oakley kickstand rm1.2k..quality frame and outstanding

So expensive !
Got what features?

Is that tag heuer? really expensive

this is really off topic but id really want to know how authentic the frames tht ppl at any optic store sells
last time i was eyeing on a montblanc frame but when i went to the boutique they told me they cant confirm the authenticity since tht item was not in their list
plus i double check on their website n they din hv any line for reading glasses

Bro, ebay link for clubmaster? Thanks

dude, i got it from dis seller,

http://cgi.ebay.com.my/1950s-Retro-Clubmas...3#ht_1295wt_940

last time it was arnd +-rm20

Phillippe Starck from Alain Mikli is good. I owned 3 frames from them. Don't buy Tag Heuer or Oakley because the quality is bad & overprice due to marketing. May consider ic Berlin...

Try chalsea. I've juz bought it n tis coming tues i can gt it ordy. Now got CNY sales here. the ori price is rm380 bt i oli gt it for rm280 and i oso helped

my fren bought 3 pairs of fresh kon shimmering grey and they oli cost RM95. Amazing price. The shop usually sell ths spec with lower price compared to

othr optical shop. Sumore i noe the manager thr. He owas the 1 who serve n give me special discount rate.




Attached thumbnail(s)

Got this few months back but black in color. I like the design at the side.

Wow really very cool

One question here...can I like look for my optometrist(Which I've been attending since im young) just to get my "eyes information" cause she's very reliable and the reading she got is always very accurate[she's an eye doctor from ireland @@ but now open specs shop] cause from my past experience..i tried going other storeays ended up the news spes i got make me dizzy.....however....in tat doctor's specs hop...she doesnt have much choice...so can i like go for her consultation and get the report and go to other specs shop to make the specs??

I don't know will this works but...

Maybe you could get a pair of frames and the matching lenses for the frame and take it to the lady?


Need someone to clarify this if this works.

If u can afford it, try Mykita.. tried one at the shop, they're really light and IMO look good.. they're about RM1.3k a pop minus lenses.. http://www.mykita.com/articles/index/glass...ollection-no-1#

Personally I'm wearing this.. http://www.porsche-design.com/europe/en/pr.../4046901157722/

wearing: cartier, hugo boss and porsche design, all is frameless type

I personally prefer this....

Anyone know where can I get clubmaster ?

rayban, but personally ur lens are wayyyyyyy more important than ur frame
pays to get good lens like nikon, carl zeiss, hoya etc.

Try to get eyewear design brand if you really want a nice pair of spectacles. Fashion design brands have no match for them.

I'm wearing a Masaki Matsushima currently, also a pair or Mikli.

Added on January 6, 2011, 9:21 pmI'm pretty sure most optical shops sell them.

Added on January 6, 2011, 9:25 pmIf your optometrist sells specs, she sure do prescribe lenses as well. You can go other places to get the frame you like, and go back to her place to prescribe your lenses.

I love ic Berlin!

This post has been edited by naimaD: Jan 6 2011, 09:26 PM

Pasar Malam, Hinode Shop, ANYWHERE, they have those.

Masaki,ic berlin...eyewear designer brand.

not necessary has to be eyewear designer brand. Tag Heuer has surprisingly good quality. and they come from a watchmaking background. i believe it is produced in house as well.

not many good quality choices in Malaysia. Oakley's stuff is rubbish since being bought over by Luxottica group.

so far i've seen my friend purchase an EVISU glasses.

it always attracts me, because the design and branding is the most unique.

EVISU, i saw made in japan and made in china ones.. look properly before buying.

Is there glasses that are non-prescriptive? I don't have a sight problem but I am planning to do some con jobs and one of the requirement is that I need to look rather 'nerdy' so any assistance on this matter is fore-appreciated.

iam currently using this. sunglasses turn glasses.

Evisu...but most important,,the glasses must sit comfortably on your nose and ears...how expensive a pair of glasses are also no use if they are not comfy...

I personally think this is the only shape of glasses and the only color that looks good on me. Others are not that nice on me sadly.

This post has been edited by emino: Feb 10 2011, 09:04 AM

To try it would cost me moneh.

Not confirm good on me yet.

can anybody suggest me a full frame glasses? matte black maybe
maybe something like ray ban prescriptions, like RB 5095 or RB 5114

any other choices?

HUGO BOSS!!!

may i know whats the price range for both these brands?

wowo, im still a student, cant afford that..yet, any cheaper alternatives?

This is nice recommendation man! I love ur taste.

True strory,

Just got my POLICE V1677 frame from Jusco Seremban RM500++ wif carl zeis lense RM280. After 1 day already got dizzy n blurry vision compare to my last eyeglass. I return it 2 change the glass,did another eyetest but the optometris said my previous glass is OVERPOWERED n bad for eyes (something bout making the eyes tired and all wutever). So i keep using it but after a few days feel dizzy so i went to another shop at tesco seremban. Check my eyes at 2 different shops there n lastly make another pair of lense (overpower) AO Lense (also under carl zeiss) for RM230. Wear it for a days, vision super sharp but i'm kinda worried bout the long term effect so i switch back to my 1st lense (the carl zeis). Another few days past, still "tak puas hati" wif the lense..come back to another shop, make a new pair of lense HD Pro Crystal Lux (manufactured by Hoya) RM260, not overpower but minor +- from my 1st lense. My point is, choose your Optometrist wisely my friend or u'll end up wasting near RM1K for your glasses...n btw, POLICE V1677 rawks..and oakley kinda sucks..my last frame is byblos, rayban and oakley...

Any idea what brand for me to get simillar item in malaysia?

Why don't you check with any optic shops ?
You should find it yourself...

I believed these r Oakley

Clubmasters from RayBan.

EVISU

armani

there's alot of similar looking frames in optical store as well as those who sells fashion spec frames around shopping malls, not hard to find I presume..

Nice thread, keep on view.
