well it's supposed to accommodate asian features like how we dont have high nose bridge and some of us have wide faces. from what i heard you cannot buy "asian fit" in the stores only on the web? because they were sued by someone (asian) for being racially biased?

hmm interesting, you know that kind of sucks you can't try them on though. Because it would end up being hit or miss with buying something that MIGHT fit better. But if it doesn't, Returning things is always a pain.. Another problem these days is that theres always someone playing the "racial" card. Lets say some are right, but from a lot of todays situations it seems like a desperate excuse to try to snatch some money.

i agree; i actually thought it was cool that a company would invest the money to develop some of their popular sunglasses to fit the asian face...there have been a lot of sunglasses that i drool over and couldnt buy/wear because they were too narrow. So this is cool...
