The BEST glasses you've never heard of... 

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.

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.

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

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😅.

Great video. The Amos pair look very cool. I like everything that you showed.

Great video Robert, really like those L'ecurie's.

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

L´ecurie wins it for me, hands down... Thanks for another informative video!

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

Can confirm, never heard of any of these brands 😂 learn something new every day!

Robert, love watching all your videos, merry Christmas 🎅 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

Great video Robert, You need to wean the people off Luxottica!

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.

Great review ... Thanks ... 👏😎

Lot's of nice frames

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

All beautiful, any chance you’ll do a video on Maybach glasses?

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Cheers!

Just received my pair of L'Écurie Paris Leos based on this review. They are nice glasses, although more like $800 instead of $500 😅

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.

Still would go with either gast or barton perreira

I loved the gold mortimer 😮

Ang gwapo talaga

More of this 😊

OMG 😳 I love your RU-vid

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?

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

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...

Hello. What's your opinion of SALT eyewear?

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 !

Can we wash acetate frames in normal water when it's dirty?

Have you ever tried a titanium frame from Ray Ban?

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).

Points off for the acetate temple tips; why?

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.

Went to your store and you don’t have Reykjavik Sunna’s??

Have you heard about RetroSuperFashion?

I hope none of these is owned by Luxxotica.

Walton... High end sunglasses with no AR coating on the back of the lens!?!?!?! Excuse me while I run around screaming in furious anger! Ditch the stupid enviro unfriendly packaging and make glasses that are at least fit for purpose, PLEASE.

Why don't you do a review on Vysen Eyewear, they're Handcrafted in Italy.
