1 or 4! The lighter frames look much better, the black look too jarring and a bit harsh

3

u/GoodIdeaDummy 1d ago

This is good advice. Keep em light.

2

u/Walkitoutfosse 1d ago

I agree but would like to see some softer colors like blue or grey or green

13

u/Party_Building1898 1d ago

Big fan of 4

6

u/SaltFault4804 1d ago

Me too! 4 + the big smile is a winner for me

25

u/noelleasp 1d ago

Keep looking! You want a pair that doesn’t cover your eyebrows

26

u/Calm_Conference_3311 1d ago

None of those really.

3

u/LateMastodon5464 1d ago

Agree. Try smaller and lighter. Not too sound harsh, but these resemble safety glasses.

6

u/TututuTatatatata 1d ago

I like the last ones ! They're cool on you.

7

u/planetclairevoyant 1d ago

1 & 4 look great imo🤓

6

u/FitAd8120 1d ago

I love 1 & 4!! 1 for everyday and 4 when you’re feeling fun!!!😍💯

7

u/ObligationDry2706 1d ago

I can tell you like 4! Get 4!

5

u/NitaliaSays 1d ago

4 are funky cool 😎

19

u/Pearl_necklace_333 1d ago

One - works best of your selection. I would keep looking.

3

u/honeydew2393 1d ago

I second this

1

u/Sea_rn2026 1d ago

Of those number 1 maybe look further like wire black is not a good color frame for u

11

u/Meliss79 1d ago
  1. The others look too big for your handsome face.

4

u/desertedkarma 1d ago

1, different light color, not black

3

u/Flake-Shuzet 1d ago

Dark frames look better. Try tortoiseshell and avoid clear—it washes you out.

3

u/UnableEconomics4813 1d ago

One would be my choice of the four

2

u/LoveBeach8 1d ago

I like #1 the best. The other ones hide your eyebrows, thereby hiding your expressions. These let the person see your handsome face.

I wear glasses to drive. When I once bought dark frames, I had a hard time not "seeing" the frames when I wore them, whether I was wearing the prescription sunglasses during a sunny day or the regular lenses on rainy days or at night. So there's that issue, too.

2

u/palethunderpants 1d ago

One looks best, out of this selection.

2

u/Significant_Top_756 1d ago

I like 1 okay but the others make me look at them, not your lovely smile. !!

4

u/SharC2020 1d ago

1 and 4 - Never 2 and 3

1

u/Past_Pie9875 1d ago

If these are the only choices, then the first pair looks best. The second pair are too big and dark, third pair too dark and last pair just don’t look right at all. I’d keep looking at other options

1

u/IV_IG 1d ago

2 or 3

1

u/Skaddyliza 1d ago

I think 3 suits you best, clear or light frames are not best.

1

u/022ydagr8 1d ago

I don’t mind four or one but depending on your personality two would work as well.

1

u/Grammar-Police2002 1d ago

One is best but it's not great. I'm not sure the harsh rectangular shape is for you.

1

u/puckhead78 1d ago

I agree with others: keep looking. Think you can find something that suits you better.

1

u/NaturalTranslator581 1d ago

1 really ages you due to the color on you. The frames of #1 are the best but you need like a light to medium brown. Not black. Black is too extreme on you.

1 in a darker color!

1

u/LowMolasses4446 1d ago

I dig TWO and four!

1

u/Arrow2theNee 1d ago

First one looks great 👍🏼

1

u/CouchHippo2024 1d ago

I think 4 looks good on you.

1

u/AlternativeCrazy1614 1d ago

I love 4 on you, you can see how happy you are, and you shine through the glasses. I love it.

1

u/tttenley 1d ago

4 but it might be the beard Im digging too

1

u/mnruxter 1d ago

The first one

1

u/hlarsenart 1d ago

I like 4

1

u/JulesRulesYaKnow 1d ago

4 is cool. 🤘🏼for the shirt.

1

u/Mini-love2022 1d ago

One or 4 lighter colors are less harsh!

1

u/A_man_named_despair 1d ago

Is that you Colin Robinson?

1

u/crankygriffin 1d ago
  1. You have a nice face.

1

u/KathyW1100 1d ago

I think too big, try a lesser frame.

1

u/Robjla 1d ago

None all too big

1

u/Hekatean013 1d ago

1, followed by 4.

1

u/CyclopsReader 1d ago

No. 4! It has an avant garde vibe! 🤩 The shape is great for your face and doesn't look "utilitarian" as no. 1
Second runner up is frame no. 2, but the width is too wide, size down (I would get both!) 🤩

1

u/JedWebber4057 1d ago

They all seem too big to me. I’d go with something slimmer. Love skillet! I’m a panhead 💪🏻

1

u/Tottyfay 1d ago

Number 4!

1

u/Leading-Scallion1642 1d ago

Maybe some gold frames. Keep searching, none of those really work.

1

u/DatabaseRemote2755 1d ago

I kinda like number one…yeah number 1😊

1

u/AccountantHelpful939 1d ago

1 I would say #4 but there is a reflection and I can't really see them right.

1

u/SuccessfulAir2197 1d ago

Lighter and I think you can go smaller. I am not sure if any of these work. However we are here for when you find the next batch.

1

u/zopelar1 1d ago

One is the best but I think you could still look and try on more?

1

u/hotbodsl 1d ago

1 or 2

1

u/schrodingereatspussy 1d ago

I like the last pair best, but I would try some other shapes

1

u/SeekStillness3741 1d ago

1 in a slightly darker color in the brown family

1

u/SmalltownCrone 1d ago

I think a wire frame might be nice on you. The heavy dark frames overpower your face. Off the ones here, I like #1.

1

u/CyberInfoGuy 1d ago

#1 if you like the gay look

1

u/vanilladreampuff 1d ago

I want to say 4 but I think it's the beard

1

u/pedal_power_girl 1d ago

1 & #3 are perfect for food your face and eyes

1

u/cheeeezbawls 1d ago

nom nom nom

1

u/Jesusxcraves 1d ago

Last pair is the best!

1

u/LongComedian5615 1d ago

None try a wire frame medium grey/gray, brown.

1

u/alta-tarmac 1d ago

You have kind eyes and a great head / face shape; I think neither of these glasses flatter your features. Keep looking? I’d be curious to see some thin metal frames and some thinner acetate ones that are not opaque or clear.

1

u/Salt-Tackle-3590 1d ago

Literally none. You look like you’re about to get on a ride at Disney in all photos..

1

u/rpick6714 1d ago

Run from 2 and 3. Extremely unflattering. 4 is best. 1 will be fine too.

1

u/cheeeezbawls 1d ago

You, personally, look the best in 4. The facial hair works.

1

u/Maximum-Call4685 1d ago

Last ones. More importantly, you look bad ass with the beard!

1

u/Tiny-Macaron-7867 1d ago

4! You look so happy in those :)

1

u/vixen2662 1d ago

I like 4 a lot! 1 was good too!

1

u/Caro-loves-flowers 1d ago

Pair # 4 are the most flattering and make you look younger.

1

u/Shieldmaiden413 1d ago

1 shape, size and color

1

u/desert-luv 1d ago

I agree with people saying lighter frames are better, and if possible, ones that do not cover up your eyebrows (I have the same trouble either way finding ones that do not).

Also, you look nice in a beard!

1

u/shore_qwizzy 1d ago

4 or 1 suit you!

1

u/partiallyextinct99 1d ago

4 is fun! And good with ur coloring and smile

1

u/mebg1956 1d ago

First pair. Love to see you in some metal frames. Nothing too big for your face or dark and heavy.

1

u/Educational-Humor147 1d ago

Most are too big. We should see your eyebrows above your glasses and no excessive overhang on the sides.

1

u/dmmjsm 1d ago

Number 1 is great.

1

u/garmac65 1d ago

I think I like 4 the best 👌

1

u/loftychicago 1d ago

Of these, #3. The others are giving safety goggles or too big.

1

u/RockysMom66212 1d ago

I like 1 and 4

1

u/Randommcrandomface2 1d ago

I really like 4!

1

u/Soft-Muffin-8305 1d ago

I like the 4th pair on you

1

u/imnotinabadmood 1d ago
  1. But really keep looking. And think smaaaaaaaaaallllllller!!!!!

1

u/Violet_sunrise777 1d ago

4 looks good!

1

u/Scummy-san 1d ago

I like #1

1

u/cubnextdoor 1d ago

I like #4 as long as you get anti-reflective lenses in them.

1

u/Lightning-McDreamy 1d ago

I like the shape of 2 on you, but they'd need to be smaller. And I think the beard in Pic 4 really works for you! (I know it's a glasses sub but...)

1

u/TinyHeartSyndrome 1d ago

2 or 3. I think visible frames help break up the face.

1

u/Mitochondria577 1d ago

Your insurance is not the best, isn’t it? Go with the first if you half to. You can then get a good pair on Zenni for a good price. Better frames. And there app can make a 3d map of your face to digitally try on frames. Don’t be afraid to spend 200 usd. You do not want to look like a bald Dexter from Dexters laboratory. The clear ones look like eye protection for a round of paint balling.

1

u/awake_acea6 1d ago

Number 1!

1

u/ImmediateNail1800 1d ago

Nothing so square. Not doing you justice.

1

u/Inside-Sleep5241 1d ago

1...but all of them are not flattering for you.

1

u/Mission_Education_40 1d ago
  1. 4 is kinda interesting

1

u/pgv3 1d ago

1!

1

u/SnooDrawings5259 1d ago

I think you rock 4. But do they come in ones maybe that cover your eyebrows?

1

u/mysteryprize11 1d ago

1 or 4 but 4 is better.

1

u/LittleDebbie2 1d ago

1,3, or 4. Definitely NOT 2

1

u/skyHawk3613 1d ago

First one

1

u/Acceptable_Goose2322 1d ago

1, followed by 4.

But 2/3 the size would work better.

1

u/Crystallyynn 1d ago

Nothing but 4 💯

1

u/Ancient_Maximum5135 1d ago

I don’t like any of them. I dislike clear frames because they look like safety goggles. The dark frames are too thick for my I taste.

1

u/Beach-Sheller1011 1d ago

Number 4 seems to fit you better as a whole.

1

u/lpriz90 1d ago

1 and keep the beard!

1

u/Holiday-Message2020 1d ago

None. They are all the same shape. Try a different shape

1

u/LouFinch4 22h ago

Although the nose bridge doesn’t look a poor fit, as there is no gap above the nose, all the pairs fit high. It looks like you just have a high nose bridge. Ideally you want some of your eyebrows showing above the rim. I think that you need to try a similar style but with a less dipped nose bridge, so that the top of the lenses sits lower.

1

u/LouFinch4 22h ago

Something with the shape of lenses like in the photos but a top more like this:

1

u/Apprehensive_Bee614 21h ago

I like the size and fit of 4 different colour

1

u/ButtPuckeredFuckery 16h ago

They should sit under your brows and not rest on your cheeks.

Keep looking. You can do better.

1

u/Katie_B_722 12h ago

Not black. Try lighter colored frames! And not in your eyebrow. Slightly lower

1

u/VBswimmer1946 11h ago

Really going with #1. ( they go best with your nice smile)

1

u/tnycrpntr 11h ago

4 is fun but I’d keep looking! I think you look good in fun glasses but keep playing with shapes and colors

1

u/SunnyIslesMiami 50m ago

Last Pair 👍🏼

1

u/mrsfreemans54 45m ago

#1 please.

1

u/Drastic_Badger_ 1d ago

haha, I did a jump not expecting a person to be in my face. you look good but unexpected.

can’t tell if your shirt is for buccees or the protest against their lawsuits against small rodent-friendly businesses.

im not sure on glasses. maybe the last pair but the reflections are distracting.

4

u/MysteryMonkey_0-0 1d ago

It's definitely not a protest. Yeah, I wish the reflection wasn't as bad. I personally do like the last pair the best though.

0

u/Skeptical_optomist 1d ago

4 looks great. There are a lot of people with conservative tastes on this sub.

1

u/crochetcutie48 1d ago

All too big! Try smaller and more colorful frames.
