Focals

[Matt Deckard]

I thought I'd open up a line on Glasses since they are something that most everyone wears in time and who wants a pair that makes you look like a slob.

Here I am in a slovenly state with a pair of old focalsfrom the 1930's that I have just had my prescriptions put into.

Here is another pic with another pair of specs... these are modern with cables that wrap around the ears. I will try to post a better pic of the glasses alone.

. . . . Here I am in a slovenly state . . . .

Matt, I'm disillusioned! I thought you always wore coat and tie! (But the spectacles are nice.)

[Mark Seitelman]

O.K., Matt, which one is the real you?

[Matt Deckard]

I usually do wear a coat and tie, though that day I decided to go incognito.
I took the dishevelled pic for effect.

If you run into me on the street or in the office on any given day I'll have on a tie.

[Matt Deckard]

Make that a tie hat and jacket.

I still have the problem of going from 280 to 220 pound in a year and my old suits are too big to be altered. You should see me in better threads in fture pics as I am ready to buy some new suits.

I've got to hand it to you, Matt, you've developed a personal style, and wear it very well, at a young age. Good for you!
Will your new suits be new Vintage suits or new New suits?
BTW, there is a function on the LL site which allows you to "view posts since last visit"; look for it (in small print) in the Forum section; you've got to look hard but it does bring up just the new posts. Cheers.

[Matt Deckard]

New new and new old.

I'm going to scout for vintage, and for suits that are made I will have the tailor copy styles from the past, most likely some belt backs will be in my future.

Thanks for the info on the new post button.
