if the sunglasses touch your cheek when you put on, does that mean it does not fit your face? still dunno how to see which type of sunglasses fit which type of face

that means your shades dun fit. find one that sits nicely on your nose bridge. go for fitting and comfort rather than one that looks nice but doesn't fit you.

i see so many ppl go for aviators cos it looks nice on others but doesn't care whether it looks nice on themselves anot.

if your face is fat or round, then a small and square frame will make your face looks slimer. aviator definitely is out unless you don't mind looking like a fashion disaster or clown.

if you have a chiselled oval face, then any frame looks good. aviator looks good on this type of face.

if your face is slim or long, then a slightly bigger and round frame will make it look broad.

would you guys get a white oakley mframe / radar path?

i'm a tanned, 1.7m and skinny. planning to get one over the next week end but not sure if it'll suit me.

jimm99, you will need to try out both the shades. I have tried and felt that the M Frame does not sit well on my face. Radar fits well.

Can any Bros here recommend a place where there I can get a case for shades. Normally the casing for shades are bigger due to the curve design of the shade.

TIA. :)

just go to big sister in law. Their cases cause $2, including big ones that can fit larger shades, although not all.

Thanks for the comment, cowculator. But what/where is big sister in law? :)

Daiso. They have cases of all kinds and their microfiber cloth is also quite good. 3 for $2. IMM has the best selection of all.

I think the black zipper case will be big enough, but you could bring your sunglasses along to test if the size is right.

Hi,

Anyone can give some review about the Oakley X-metal, either juliet or X-square?

I have 3 pair of oakley. Two of which are without any paint coating and has been using it as prescriptive glasses. Both more been using for more then 5 years and I must say it is pretty good since I wear it all the time.

The 3rd piece is a coated and they call it Pewter. Also use it as prescriptive glasses. The bad thing about this coated piece is that the paint chip off easily..... Lost my warranty..... sian.......

I have handled both the X-metal piece and I am kind of worry about durability of the coating across the titanium. Anyone who often wear their X-metal series care to comment?

Another question. Where is a good place to try out large variety of Tag Heuer sunglasses?
