    Sunglasses

    anyone have recommendations? It's sort of a necessity as I drive in the morning- and come winter the snow is rather blinding. I don't really know what goes well with the clothes I generally wear though?

    that depends on the shape of your face.



    I would recommend Alain mikli. You can't go wrong with most of his design.



    Some Japanese brands are great too...such as 999.9....I remember seeing some eyewears collection in magazines. Let me dig them up and scan them in.

        the Alain Mikli shop in Hong Kong stocks 999.9. I almost bought a pair of 999.9 instead of AM. But I couldn't find any 999.9 shape that fits my face.

          Yea, it definitely depends on the shape of your face. As for me, I love Yohji Yamamoto sunglasses - there is always something very unique about them. I've had my pair for over 6 years, and I never get tired of them. Last year my wife also bought a pair - there were only 2 pairs in the entire North America at the Yamamoto boutique in Soho. They are a very classic design with a bit of quirkiness to them, that's I don't get tired of them, I guess. Whoever makes Yohji's glasses uses excellent materials, mostly steal and other metals - no cheap plastic a la Dolce and Gabbana. As Buckwheat suggested Mikli is a good brand. Oliver Peoples and LA Eyeworks also make good sunglasses. I've never seen 999.9. Oh, BTW, did you know that Chrome Hearts makes sunglasses? Neither did I, but I seen them in London.

              SZ approved sunglasses?



              I searched but couldn't find any on this topic.



              Just wondering what do you guys wear to protect your eyes from the sun. I find it difficult to find sunglasses that matches with what I wear so...
