I ordered 47 eyeglass frames from Aliexpress and it cost me less than a single frame.

I don't like dem changes, it makes me go crazy for some years.

I researched shelf life of the plastic used and I already know the rate which my eye glasses break. So I will be rocking these for the next decade or more.

That's it dear dull men.

I had been using the same metal frame full time for the last decade until recently when I got a new one of the same model, that older frame now has tinted lenses in it and ensures that I look cool in all lighting conditions.

Compared to plastic frames they're also much more repairable.

They cause itch on my gorgeous nose. And would get these red marks on my nose.

Also from my experience the silicone nose pad arm usually breaks (maybe I got lower quality)

Your never broke!?

And may I see a photo?

Edit: the reason it caused an itch/mark, I think because metal glasses are heavier and I ha e eczema or something

Mine indeed never broke, despite me carelessly tossing them around the place. I even wore them to like 20 concerts over the years where they survived my advanced headbanging skills.

I guess my German nose is just more resilient than yours, ha! /s But I never had the silicone pads brake on me, not even on other, cheaper frames.

I can't really take a good picture of it due to my inability to take good pictures, but here's one.
