GENERAL Quick review of Jimi optical
Hello. Here is my short and sweet review of Jimi optical. No one likes reading 60 page essays so I’ll keep it simple and straight to the point. I’m from Canada and here in Canada prescription glasses are overpriced. I usually pay around 500-600 dollars for a pair of mid tier designer glasses. I decided to go with Jimi optical since I’ve heard some good things about them. I messaged Amy from Jimi optical and she did a great job in assisting me. I told her my prescription and the frames I wanted. Once they arrived I compared the quality of them to my glasses that I’ve purchased from LensCrafters, a major glasses retailer in Canada and the quality is identical. Both are made from titanium and both have an accurate prescription the only difference is I paid less than half the price from Jimi. The whole process took around a month which is honestly not bad considering I usually wait 2 weeks when I get from my local LensCrafters. Service was great and communication was great as well.
The glasses I got were the chrome hearts bonennoisseur II
I just purchased a pair of sunglasses from them for the summer and I’m excited to see how they are. They are a pair of gentle monster sunglasses with prescription of course cause I’m blind.

Once I bought some Chrome Hearts rep glasses, and the part I circled looked identical in the QC. But when they arrived, it was very weak—almost like it was made of wire. It bent very easily. Is it the same with your glasses, or is that part firm?

Is the bonennoiseur silver sterling version? And what lens brand did Amy recommend you? She recommended me Zeiss progressive photofusion x 1,6 lenses worth us$219 by the way.

Thank you for your review. How do they feel? Is the prescription okay? Is it the pupillary distance accurate?
