I have bought both pairs, I just want to know which to wear out first.

Yo.

(Be fair, there's nothing else going on on here.)

The thicker Osiris glasses detract from your face and look odd to me. You can see your face/eyes better in the Red or Dead.

They got my vote. :3

[grapes]

red or dead gets my vote too.

[Ladida]

Red or Dead. Those frames enhance the entire looking-at-Sweeney experience, as compared to the Osiris frames.

[Sweeney]

Ah yes, it is important that they enhance the experience of my face. True enough.

Is it possible to see both versions after you've grown out some Wolverine-ish sideburns?

Alas, no.

Edit: Feel free to photoshop it in if it helps, though.

[luvsmyncis]

Well, it'll always be possible in my dreams.

You are facing the light in the Red or Dead photo, creating a better lit, more glowing picture of your face as opposed to the Osiris picture which looks dark an ominous in comparison. It doesn't help that the darker frame above the eyes in the Osiris pic creates an illusion of unamused, even stern looking eyebrows. I feel like that's why people are favoring the Red or Dead, but actually I think both glasses look good. Wear the pair that pinches your nose least.

Red or Dead.
Unless you're going for the more dramatic look for the day.

Osiris looks like what I'm wearing right now

Well, of course they both look good... they're on my face. Silly ^^

Why, New Years, of course.
Shan't have anyone to kiss at midnight though.

I prefer the Red or Dead because they seem more sleek. I dont particularly care for thicker frames in general though, so I already had a bias

[Nymh]

The Osiris seems to fit your face better and stands out, where the Red or Dead look too wide (at least from that angle) and don't fit your nose as well. I like a strong bridge on a man's frame.

Also, not that it matters but I worked in they eye care biz for 6 years. I am glad to see something here that I can relate to professionally

Always good to have a professional opinion.

Better than the rest of you shits.

[Faerhii]

Nymh brings up a good point. I think part of that is based on the angle of the head in the first and second pictures, but yea, I can see how the Osiris seems to stick out less.

[Nymh]

Also by "stands out" I meant color-wise, the Red or Dead pair blend in with your face and hair, the Osiris pop more.

Yes, I know I'm good at reading, me.

[Philomene]

Osiris is better, Red or Dead looks a bit old-fashioned.

[Sweeney]

But maybe I like old-fashioned...

[Philomene]

Maybe, but you look better wearing Osiris.

[Sweeney]

Maybe, but you look better wearing Osiris.

Personal appearance is the only thing that matters after all

[Irradium]

Red or Dead. Much more mature and subtle.

[Sweeney]

It must be or you wouldnt be after opinions old man

They both look similiar to the 2 pairs of glasses I switch between. I prefer to wear the more solid looking frame over the slotted ones... All comes down to personal preference and whichever feels the most comfortable imo

Oh wait, did I give the impression that this topic would influence my decision?
I've had the Osiris ones on since I picked them up this morning.
