PSA: Dudes wearing sunglasses with white frames=LAME

[AMCRambler]

It must be a new fad for trendy twenty somethings but lately I see a lot guys wearing sunglasses with white frames. It makes them look so stupid. Dont want to look like a chick? Black, silver or grey frames. Gold if you wanna be flashy like P Diddy.

Thats is all.

Big glasses are stupid anyway. It's one of the modern fashion trends I hate the most.

 

[AMCRambler]

Yeah but the white frames look pretty mo even on the smaller lenses.

It's how I tell the gays from the straights.

Why would you get small sunglasses? Their purpose is to block out the sun... Small framed sunglasses are stupid.

I don't wear white glasses, but I think the guy in the op looks ok with them. I don't understand other people's obsession with making sure they have "manly" fashion especially in cases like this where it's borderline bullshit.

I usually wear different regular glasses at work, but white frames would be out of regs : p

 

[JulesMaximus]

Not sure why I should care about this quite frankly...

 

[Anubis]

they don't look that much larger than a pair of aviators, its just the white frame makes them look stupid

women wear stupid large sunglasses that have no functional purpose

 

[alkemyst]

The funny thing is while you stand there pissed and alone, they are sport fucking your girlfriends.

Fight the good fight bros.

You don't need large frames to block out the sun. I have smaller frames that sit closer to my eyes that also wrap around slightly.

This. I cannot stand that trend. Its worse than men popping their shirt collars on a regular basis.

Large frames that sit close to your eyes and wrap around still block out the sun better.

The difference is marginal compared to how stupid people look wearing them. Might as well wear a full cover face shield.

I've only seen them on Asians... White people stick to colored Wayfarers.

Asians (east side) have faces too flat for Wayfarers. Their cheek bones end up supporting the frame while the nose bridge makes very little contact.

Hardly. I have photophobia from near daily migraines. The difference is quite noticeable when pain is involved.

So does your condition drive your desire to wear them, or your sense of "style".

i cant see how a pair of large frames that are square to your face block more sun vs ones that wrap around assuming they were not tiny
