I just tried my first pair of Reykavik Eyes frames (the Hextor in bright blue)at my local boots and I love them, but now I want to visit your shop and try all the other styles! It's literally the only pair of glasses I've tried on that fit me properly.
Thank you, Robert, for showing me options in eyeglasses that I'd never considered before. I'm in the US, and off to look at new glasses today. Now, I feel inspired to choose a pair that is different than what I'd normally purchase.
Any thoughts on the classic Tart Optical frames. They specialize in most of these frames and have been around since the 40s. Would love to hear you talk about them
Fantastic Channel! I'm shopping for my next prescription glasses and I'm already in love with your approach. may I know your professional opinion on LAFONT?
@@thespectaclefactory they are, and both very lightweight. However the price on the Reykjavikeyes are much better for what it’s worth. You are getting the same materials and in my opinion slightly better construction on the Reykjavikeyes for almost $400 less. That’s why I would still place the Reykjavik over the Mykita.
Robert, thank you for your passion in helping us as consumers learn about the world of eyewear. I just found your channel 2 weeks ago and already have learned more about frames, lens, and tint than ever before. You speak with such passion and can tell you love what you are doing, so thank you. Working with you now in getting a new pair from you. It can be a little overwhelming trying to pick out the right glasses.
Thanks for the great exhibition SF. Those JF Rey frames are, indeed, amazing. If you were to use those as sunglasses, with a light tint, what would you choose? (Asking because I like lightly-tinted sunglasses - not super dark - but it's a trick to choose the right tint!)
Another awesome video! Just a video idea, maybe can make a series discussing about spectacle truth and myth...also still wanting a pair of lucas de staël, but dang the price, working hard to own one... Edit: Dem Reykjavik are fking AMAZING!!!!!!!
Absolutely love this colour . Really looks classy . What tint percentage is the brown or is it a transition? Also is the sapphire the Zeiss photo flash ?
Hi Robert, I was wondering what the configuration is of the Lucas De Stael Zephyr, is it dark granite with whiskey or cappucino leather? Absolutely love that combination, thinking of ordering the Zephyr 04 in that configuration. Hope you can help me out!!
You could either do “Bei Mir Bistu Shein”, "Beat Me Daddy, Eight to the Bar", "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy", "Pistol Packin' Mama" (with Bing Crosby), "Don't Fence Me In" (with Bing Crosby), "Rum and Coca Cola", "Rumors Are Flying" (with Les Paul), or “The Lady From 29 Palms".
Thanks for giving us your expert opinions, advice, and suggestion free of charge. You introduced me to a lot of brands and manufacturers that I don't know and plenty of unique, beautiful, and aesthetic frames and lenses. Much appreciated your work. Is there any frame that can make a face like mine good and beautiful? 😆 I can send my face pic if you don't mind giving me a free suggestion.
Wow, if I knew about the Reykjavik Eyes neon sooner they'd have been on my shopping list for the glasses I've just bought! When are you taking submissions for your next rate my glasses video? I'd be interested to hear your feedback on my choices
what a collection you have showcased. And you seem to effortlessly pull off any eyewear you put on. How about an episode on eyewear suitable for Asians?
I don't know if you have done it, but would you by any chance ever be checking out the brand Matsuda or Salt? Salt has frames just like Gast Anima But they're called Salt Andy WSKY or Salt Spencer WSKY BOTH ARE BEAUTIFUL IN PERSON
It depends on the frame and how it fits you, as well as the lens material. We have a recent video on that, or I would be glad to have a virtual consultation with you to advise
Gast is completely sold out, are they on European vacation, out of business, actually sold out? I have 3 pairs, they're great especially for the price. That being said, just got my new Rx, which hasn't changed, so it is time to find something wonderful
@thespectaclefactory Oh good, they are turning out a nice product for the money. I just got my new Rx yesterday, no change, so I am actively trying to figure out what I want for a new Rx sunglasses. It won't be Gast. I have a small-ish head, so I'm looking for either a small square aviator or a small but thick acetate. Light tint with photochromic, flash mirrors, rose to purple desired when dark, not polarized, maybe 10% tint or gradient in a different color than the final dark color. So many options. and the frame has to work with -5.25 sphere with -2.50 cyl...
Some overpriced mediocre styles fancy thinking a frame is super cool because it’s a fluorescent colour.🤣🤣🤣 Definitely the Emperors Clothes. I do like the look of the Gast Mapi in Crystal.
That's not the only reason. RE are incredible because of their award winning design. The colour is an interesting twist on their usual aesthetic. Please share with us what you think is cooler than my list! It's good to get different perspectives 👍
Nice neons 😍
They are just so eye catching!
Robert, I love your tinted blues glasses
Thanks so much! Me too
@@thespectaclefactorywhat are they??
Thanks for a good video Rob. Even in this category the RE perform well.They are all just supercool.
I agree!
All Exciting Cool Frames 😎 The green neon Hextor is really cool but I’ll have the JFRey 3032 🙏 Thanks and great video too 👍
It's already in production 😉
JF ray has always been part of my collections and I agree with you on their creative artistry
Can wait to grab a few of these from you!
❤️
Thanks for the information; I had never thought one should own a collection of Spectacles. I have just acquired a Tortoiseshell frame, it is cool.
That's a great start!
OMG WOW
🙏

Well done once again Robert👍 the zephyr format ,stone and leather, superb, much prefer oblong shape, but thats just me. Thank you.
The cool thing with LDS is you can have any finish in any shape!
Fantastic...

Best of luck!

I don't have enough experience with them to comment I'm afraid.
This really is my feel good channel ❤
Thank you so much 🙏

Thank you!
Lafont are a good manufacturer
SEE YOU SOON
I like the neon Reykjavikeyes, but I almost want to place the Mykita Steen in the neon orange color-way ahead of that.
They are both lovely aren't they
@@thespectaclefactory they are, and both very lightweight. However the price on the Reykjavikeyes are much better for what it’s worth. You are getting the same materials and in my opinion slightly better construction on the Reykjavikeyes for almost $400 less. That’s why I would still place the Reykjavik over the Mykita.
We currently have them in stock! email us at hello@thespectaclefactory.com and we'll help you get your perfect pair!

Very nice ..the JF rey are very diff yet not ..
They great, aren't they?
What tint did you get on ur 3032s
I haven't fully decided yet but I'm thinking blue

Blue 25 or 40% gradient + ruby flash. Perfection!
Another awesome video! Just a video idea, maybe can make a series discussing about spectacle truth and myth...also still wanting a pair of lucas de staël, but dang the price, working hard to own one...
Edit: Dem Reykjavik are fking AMAZING!!!!!!!
What tint combo is on the Cartier's. Looks like a blue....? 🤔
Brown tint + sapphire flash
Absolutely love this colour . Really looks classy .

Nooooooice! I’ll say it again but louder: NOOOOOOICE!

Hello Robert, may I ask if the Gast "MAPI" in crystal (+ adaptative sun blue gradient) as showcased is available for sale ?
Nice frames. What do you think about the Masunaga frames ?
They are really nice frames!
What is the one you are wearing at the start of the video please?
😊
For me Gast would be #1 and Cartier #2 and McLaren #3
Nice choices!
I don't know if you have done it, but would you by any chance ever be checking out the brand Matsuda
or
Salt?
Salt has frames just like Gast Anima
But they're called
Salt Andy WSKY
or
Salt Spencer WSKY
BOTH ARE BEAUTIFUL IN PERSON
I've used both plenty of times - I think they are both really good!
😮
😉
Your No 1 choice is impeccable and worthy. I wish to buy that frame sometime.
I'd love to help you with that
How do these do with high prescription like - 8?
It depends on the frame and how it fits you, as well as the lens material. We have a recent video on that, or I would be glad to have a virtual consultation with you to advise
Where can you find theframes
We ship all over the world, so just email us via hello@thespectaclefactory.com
Where can we get the neon JF Reys?
Email us -hello@thespectaclefactory.com
very nice frames but you're missing a lot of other cool ones!
There are just so many cool frames to choose from!
Any reason why you don’t indicate the prices? It would be a selection criteria for me.
Because it varies by region and of course by the lenses you select
@@thespectaclefactory thanks for the reply. Prices of frames will vary by region or country?
