Zhang Glasses - Moscot Lemtosh Size 46
The glasses finally arrived, and I won’t lie, I was expecting a bit more.
I use my gen Moscot frames as prescription glasses, and while I do think €350 is a bit overpriced for the originals, I decided to give a replica a try.
In terms of design, they’re spot on. No complaints there, everything looks accurate and well done.
Where the replicas fall short, unfortunately, is the quality, and it’s quite noticeable. I expected better materials. The plastic doesn’t feel as solid or durable as my original Moscots, and the metal parts have a slight vibration or looseness that gives off a cheaper feel.
To put it simply, they feel like those low-cost pharmacy glasses, just with Moscot’s design and branding on the temples.
Of course, you can’t expect miracles from a €70 replica, but at that price point, you could probably get something like Ray-Ban Wayfarers in second hand and be more satisfied overall.
That said, full credit to Zhang, excelent service.
Will I buy again? Maybe yes, maybe no.
