I've always wanted to wear see-through, metallic orange peels on my face, but I think this is as close as I'm going to get. Got the facemelt edition. I've got a larger head and they fit me well. The arms extend back past the ears which makes for a good fit, and means they are less likely to fall off. That being said, I'm a pretty active person and expect to be able to put glasses through a beating. Von Zipper includes a little note with the glasses basically saying 'these are a piece of art. you wouldn't wreck a piece of art, so please be gentle with your pretty new sunglasses!" Hm. For 70 bucks I personally think you should be able to throw them down the stairs and they run back up to you, but I guess style points help make up for lack of abusability. Enjoy.
