They all look really, really nice. Hats off to the small manufacturers trying to make a business from their own vision! That's one of the best things about this channel - it makes me want to wear much more "personality" in my eyewear because it shows the connection to the artisan.
100% That's the most reqarding part of what I do! I'm so glad you appreciate the concept. I want people to feel more connected to their glasses and the actual real people behind the design and manufacture of them
Personally, i’m a “Barton Perreira / Robert La Roche” man, (those “Toms” are deadly BTW). That said, of the three I’d go for the L’ecurie. I’m not an aviator fan but those are very cool. Keep up the good work Rob.
Totally agree, Linton! Have an amazing Christmas my friend.
Very interesting presentation. Great that you’re breaking the Luxottica monopoly 👍
Amazing L’Ecurie has a higher SF score than Robert la Roche. Always love your analysis 🧐 Thanks
Thanks for pointing that out! Interesting, I might have to up RLR!
Oh exciting to discover new manufactors! I like how before show casing each individual there was a paragraph about them and their individual story! Always so much fun watching your videos. It makes my glasses geek happy.😹 x
Thanks. Had fun filming this one for sure, and glad you enjoyed sharing the experience x
Love the video. I’ve seen all of these except L’Curie, but it’s good to get someone else’s take on the quality considering I would rather not buy all of them. The one I was very curious about was the Walton & Mortimer, so I’m glad you reviewed them. I enjoy heavier frames so I actually might get a pair after seeing this video. Might have to put it under the Hilco heater for a few seconds though to make them wider. My head is slightly larger than yours😅.
Hope you'll consider ordering them from us! It takes a lot of time and effort to bring this content to you
I'm really glad you loved the video 👍
Can confirm, never heard of any of these brands 😂 learn something new every day!
😅 I know more than you for once, Raymond 😉
@@thespectaclefactory Always! 😂
Great video. The Amos pair look very cool. I like everything that you showed.
Thanks John!
Thank you for this, I love the look of the Ameos,I looked them up and these two retail at $179 USD. As this is in my price range I wonder if you could compare them to maybe some other independents. I own 4 pair of Sol Moscots pre and Luxxotica Persol,Alain Mikli,Crap (inexpensive but price for product very well-made) moncada, Oscar and Frank,Akila, and Ace and Tate. These or any common Luxxotica owned brands, i've owned many. Thank you so much, love the channel and would love to see you review more quality affordable independent brands
I would say they are quality-wise on par or slightly below some of those brands, but stylistically they are better - in my opinion
L´ecurie wins it for me, hands down... Thanks for another informative video!
Thanks for watching!
Robert, love watching all your videos, merry Christmas 🎅 to you.
Merry Christmas!
Great video Robert, really like those L'ecurie's.
Me too!
Great review ... Thanks ... 👏😎
🙏 appreciate it
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Cheers!
Same to you!
I became a fan of this channel, I am looking forward to get a Gast Kawai but still trying to get an idea if they are light enough to be used 8hrs a day, they do not look that chunky as the others models 🤔 Any ideas? Thx
I like to take my Gast off towards the end of the day, but they are certainly no less comfortable than Jacques Marie Mage, who so many people rave about. I would say Ameos are light and therefore more comfortable for around the same price.
I hope you'll consider ordering through us whichever option you choose!
What a cool unboxing…and I hate being negative and perhaps it’s my Asian and American background but the Walton and Mortimer reminds me of the NFL logo. And the packaging reminds me of every Wuxi mall lower end brands trying to be lux. Once again not to hate but just gave me these vibes, perhaps people in Europeans won’t have the same feelings
It’s completely over packaged.
@@agnesolsvik thanks for making me not feel alone 🫡…JMM is super over packaged but at least it’s nice, although I think if someone was a collector might get tiresome…but the fake marble is no bueno for me.
Think it's preference, kind of like it, reminds me of a luxury watchbox, we don't have much marble things in Europe
@@d.d8381 yah if it was wood I’d totally understand that’s what Watch boxes are made of or a leather box of sort but I’ve never actually seen anything nice come out of the fake marble look 😬
Dear Robert, what a wonderful presentation and presence in your videos well done!
I wanted to ask you about an Italian eyewear brand named Eyepetizer, any thoughts about the quality? Thank you.
All beautiful, any chance you’ll do a video on Maybach glasses?
Great video Robert, You need to wean the people off Luxottica!
I'm trying!
Still would go with either gast or barton perreira
Me too
More of this 😊
More to come!
I’m looking for a review on maui jim Alikas. Haven’t found any detailed reviews on the whole youtube. Hesitant to order coz of hefty price tag. What do you think about them?
Ang gwapo talaga
Should try looking at budget/mid range sunglasses like sungod or look at weird sunglasses like Dillon's glasses with the matte finish lenes or maybe mosevic sunglasses with as their handmade in Cornwall with jeans but lens are from Zeiss
I loved the gold mortimer 😮
It's kinda cool. We have them in stock, by the way - just email me via rob@thespectaclefactory.com if you'd like a pair
Lot's of nice frames
Thank you!
Yo man... I MOS def digg & love ALL of these UNDER-rated Shades, big time! But my definitive Favourite out of ALL 3 (although they're ALL very close to eachother) are the Walton & Mortimer, hands down! 😎😁💪👊⚔️
I mean, I live in The Netherlands AND even bought the exact SAME one you featured over here in the OFFICIAL Dutch Store! The Limited Edition No.33 "Osaka, that is! 😎💪👉
And yeah man... Just like you already said...
"These are genuinely cool!"
I couldn't agree MORE, man... They sure as hell ARE, big time! And as such, I rock 'Em like crazy on a daily basis! They make one helluva cool statement & are a conversation opener! And again, like you mentioned over here as well, without being "OVER-the-Top", more toned down & less ostentatious! 😎💪👉
Funny & interestingly enuff though, thus far I HAVEN'T seen anyone else over here in The Netherlands rock these ones in particular besides myself---despite owning these ones for the past 6 months!
These No.33 Limited Edition "Osaka" ones are Mad Cool & Dope as Hell fo' sho'... And extremely RARE out there in the public!
Yup, I guess the price tag is just TOO damn HIGH for MOST people, combined with the fact that "Walton & Mortimer" is an extremely UNDER-rated Sunglasses Brand and flies under the radar in a MAJOR way to begin with...
I really like these reviews but are all the brands you feature high end?? I'd like to see reviews of genuinely well made & designed very affordable eyeware. Including decent budget brands. Glasses are for the majority a necessity not a luxury.
At least one (probably 2) of the brands he reviews here would class as affordable in my book
The Ameos ones are pretty affordable?
No, on this channel we've featured Eco Eyewear, Gast, Anglo American Optical and now Ameos who are all affordable yet good quality brands
Hello. What's your opinion of SALT eyewear?
OMG 😳 I love your CZcams
Thank you so much!
Helo sir I have a query should i go for power photo chromatic lens or power tinted lens? which will better (note- Iam not using cars for travel, mostly bike and train ridding).
I think if you can only have one, and you don't have sunglasses, then you should go with photochromic! We'd love to make you a pair and ship them over to you
@@thespectaclefactory Iam very glad that you response to my message but iam from different country and i am following your channel , it helps me lot.
@@thespectaclefactory My last query was My budget suits for photochromatic but i have seen your video in which you said in indoor there is less gradient present like 10% or less , is that any worry for night vision or indoor spaces?
Can we wash acetate frames in normal water when it's dirty?
Yes, room temperature water is best.
Have you ever tried a titanium frame from Ray Ban?
Yes, I recently worked on a pair of 'Japan' Titanium RayBan's and they felt like a cheap toy
@@thespectaclefactory well, that’s sad! Apparently, They are unable to make a good move with Ray Ban. I wish this Brand had a comeback.
Points off for the acetate temple tips; why?
Pure titanium looks and feels more premium IMO
I have a severe Migraine Disorder and have been wearing dark glasses since I was a kid , when I have an attack. I think we might have very different taste of glasses . I hate Luxottica you hate them , Everyone i know hates them. That said I have found over Many years that an amber/ rose colour works best for pain reduction. I like glass lenses, Polerized ,with anti- reflective coating (in my experience) it often wears off over time you might be able to give info about it? And finally I like acetate frames with wide side arms . The closest I have come (after Cartier) which are quite expensive has been Persol. They used to have an amber/ rose lens when they were independent and I could have them swap out others for the frames I liked . What advice can you give me if I came to your shop in the UK ? I also hate metal arms ,but own 1 pair of Persol that's a mix of acetate frame with metal arount the lenses. I am open for new designs & Brands !
Went to your store and you don’t have Reykjavik Sunna’s??
Are you sure? Because we definitely do have them in stock. You might have gone to one of the companies who have copied our name? Our store is in Preston, Lancashire.
@@thespectaclefactory I clicked on your link on the description, went to online store. You have Reykjavik glasses but no Sunna’s
I think i would go with Marcus Marienfeld instead of these 3 Brands. Otherwise there is a brand and shop called "lunettes et vision" in germany, they make your own design with limited production to ten frames with natural horn and with your name on it. It starts at 1700€ up to over 2000€ for a frame. If you are searching for the best, then you have to try and show us products that are also made of natural horn imo.
MM makes exceptional frames. Extremely special, unique and I would love to showcase them here on CZcams.
I've tried working with him but unlike every single brand who I have a loving, warm relationship with, I just never got that from him. He doesn't seem to like me and doesn't want us to be a stockist, which is a real shame as my own father wears one of his frames.
@@thespectaclefactoryto be fair, I get a sense that if a brand isn't to your liking, either because you don't rate their products or their customer service isn't to your liking, it's going to get called out on your video. I'm sure you are are aware that being so honest about small emerging brands is going to burn bridges. Personally, I wouldn't come near this store for that reason with any of my brands. Nothing against you. You're just being honest and that's your thing, but young brands are often the ones who struggle the most getting their products up to the required standard or even just finding their own look in the market. Generally I find if a store doesn't like one of my brands, they just bite their tongue and won't buy it.
Have you heard about RetroSuperFashion?
RetroSuperFuture? Yes
whats the quality of them? @@thespectaclefactory
I hope none of these is owned by Luxxotica.
That's the whole point of my channel
@@thespectaclefactory Awesome!
