This is no exaggeration: The first night I wore these glasses out, I was invited to join a gentlemen's club, asked to play rugby for a local team, and I went home with a beautiful young lady who claimed, the next day, to have only talked to me because of my glasses. These glasses = WIN.

The only problem for me is that the arms are just a bit short. I have no complaint about this whatsoever due to the price & service. I would like to be able to use the virual mirror on ALL glasses, and I would like to be able to try ALL before I buy. If I could try before I buy, I may go for the more expensive styles.

They glasses arrived slightly dusty and marked on the bridge. Like they'd been used before or tampered with.
Also, you can hardly see my eyes. I'm not sure if i clicked the wrong option when ordering them but my eyes look distant in them, smaller and far away from the glasses. They don't make my eyes properly visible, just the reflection on the glass itself. I may have to return them due to this.
