Disrespectacles

In you're looking for simple, basic (read: boring, ugly) wire frame glasses, the type you'll find in scores at any average optometry store, then you probably want to avoid Disrespectacles. Glasses at this Manhattan outpost come in two varieties: hip and hipper. Sleek titanium frames (hip), clear plastic frames (hipper), thick nerd-chic frames (hip), and massive round vintage frames (hipper) are among the distinctive selection. In love with the frames you already own? No problem: Disrespectacles can have your frames reproduced for you. The original West Village location is tiny but packed tight with great frames.
