These are a very functional pair of glasses. They're not flashy or overbearing. They sit nicely & are comfortable. They go with pretty much any outfit (unless you're dressing up smart maybe). I find the rounded shape of the frames creates a softer look than than that of other glasses. They're the kind of glasses you wear if you don't want to make a statement, which can be nice sometimes.
-
Um... one of the arms fell off after only a short while, luckily I found the screw & so could repair it.

There are a couple of little marks in the plastic arms of my pair which can not been seen only felt when running finger over them, this does not cause any problem when wearing them and are only felt when putting them on and away.

I needed a frame which had plastic arms but I did not want to go with an all plastic frame. I have been wearing metal framed spectacles for many years but found that the finish on the arms sometimes peeled / flaked or left a nasty mark on the side of your head. No such problem with these spectacles!
-
None that I can think of. Maybe the only thing is that whilst you have the benefit of slightly bending metal arms to fit your head and ear contour better, you dont get this with plastic arms. Possible solution - a thin metal insert into the plastic arm to give them that shaping option
