Pros: Blocks most of the light! Even (especially) that pesky light that hits the perfect angle and ensures you can see your eyeball and all your sebaceous glands reflecting back at you in super HD zoom! - Great lenses, color and clarity are addictive even if they are a bit bright and let in too much light. The reflective color is very attractive. Solid frame. Not a problem here, but I would keep an eye on the flex ends, seems like they might fall apart after a while. Real leather, not that $10 real leather wallet you can buy at the department store. Looks and feels exactly what you're looking for. A lightweight. Cons: They're pretty narrow. Maybe I have a big head or a chubby face, but the lenses are too tight together and the skin doesn't fit like it should. The leather in the center isn't tailored to the frame, there are some conflicting corners and an odd protrusion (if you're into details like that, yes.) The small latch gets the job done, but it doesn't look pretty. People will think you're into steampunk cosplay and not just functionality. No, I'm not "studying the blade". Deformity: - The small hooks holding the leather side panels attached to the frame WILL NOT stay put. I had a broken hook and the assembly snapped my eye while I was just sitting. You can bend them tight again, but that doesn't last long. Why make such beautiful leather covers and then attach these horrible little clasps to them? I paid €169.95. The price as of this writing (6/28/18) is inexplicably under $120. I wouldn't pay more than $60 for it even if I was in a tight spot. The description uses beautiful words and phrases that make you think that this company makes glasses as well as they were made 125 years ago. I'm here to say that this is just another shopping mall goggle imported from God Knows Where The Money Is Made.
