Got the Lankaster back with my rx lenses. Really like this pair. Bonus pic of my wife’s Picabia.
Do you wear the Lankaster just as sunglasses or as "normal" glasses?
I was thinking about getting glasses with darker lenses like sunglasses to wear them.
But I'm not sure, how practical that is.
Perhaps there are glasses that are not as dark as those of sunglasses.
@JerkStore I actually got a pair of lenses made with gradient tinted lenses in green. I think, they go from 30% down to 10%. But you can hardly see the colour, neither from the outside nor from wearing them.
So I might need to get them gradient from say 50% to 30% or all in 30%. Not sure.
Perhaps grey or brown are better choices.
The reason I'm looking for some lenses like that is to make the quite substantial acetate frame less conspicuous.
I find with sunglasses for example heavier frames are easier to wear than with transparent lenses.

Oak Street Bootmakers
"Dainite Trench Boot" in Indigo Horween Rough-Out
Size US 10.5
These special boots have been gently worn. A little too small for me now, so I never wear them. Which is a pity. Time to make some space. You can see some fades, but as with jeans „these still have a lot of life“ in them. The fades are just starting to show.
Price: US$439.- + shipping from Germany
All the info:
The Trench Boot from Oak Street Bootmakers is the brand's famed 8 hole work boot.
This limited edition installment is made from Horween Chromexcel rough out leather that has been indigo-dyed in the small mountain village of Fujino, Japan.
With wear, the indigo will fade to a beautiful vintage blue color, and wear to further reveal the natural leather rough-out texture.
The boot features a slimmer, more modern silhouette than most work boots, thanks to Oak Street Bootmakers' signature Elston last - an exclusive last that master cobbler George Vlagos spent over 5 years developing.
This version of the "Trench Boot" is fitted with Dainite Soles for extra grip and protection in extreme weather environments.

@Heavy_blue Thanks.
Yes, I've heard of those.
@JerkStore I see.
Thanks for the reply.
Any experience with wearing sunglasses all day like normal glasses?
Or possibly with lenses in between, like medium dark?
