    Acetate Excellence

    Please note that I cannot offer a longterm review on these sunglasses and an expansive evaluation of durability and longevity, this is an impression after a few weeks of ownership.

    The glasses arrived even, that is, when I expand the arms and place the glasses on the table, they lay flat and I don’t need to do any sort of adjusting or bending. I’ve purchased other brands where the glasses arrived crooked as a dog’s hind leg and I had to adjust them extensively. Additionally, the thick acetate frame with steel core is something I greatly appreciate. Much of the sunglass market uses molded plastic, and while it is a little more lightweight, in my experience, it isn’t nearly as sturdy. When you wear these you’ll feel the weight of their luxury and quality.

    Regarding style, I think AKILA’s description of the Idol frame as “a classic-era silhouette reinterpreted through a modern lens” is accurate. They wouldn’t be at all out of place in a 1950s ad or image from that eyewear company that rhymes with “Spray-Tan.”

    My only knock is the case the glasses arrive in. It’s nice polyurethane case, don’t get me wrong, but I will always advocate for a hard case. I want my glasses protected from bumps and pressure placed on them when I’m not wearing them, and a soft case cannot do that. Lastly, be sure to read the measurements. For the big heads among us, this pair is a win and is quite flattering. Small heads, be warned, these will be oversized for you.

    Overall, I’m quite pleased.
