3. (ahem....!) I believe "cross-gender" is the appropriate descriptor for applying a frame primarily meant for one sex to the other.

Or...perhaps..."cross-ethnic" is the better moniker.

Barry, now that I have chucked the mag. any chance you could email me your terrific article?

Cazal seems to have the spot as Most Stolen Frame. I have only seen one being worn by a Caucasin in 50 years. He was at national OAA meeting in New Orleans so I assume he was an optician.

I carried Cazal when I lived in Wisconsin (of all places). It didn't sell quickly, but surprisingly sold at all. Our region of the state was very "white bread." I remember when I went to VEE the first time, and got off the plane at LaGuardia, and realized I'd forgotten what it was like to see people of all different ethnicities! OKC is relatively diverse, compared to central WI. I think Cazal moves a little better here.

Back to the OP: whose idea was THAT?? Juxtaposition that didn't work. X^P

That would be JZ.

Jesus wears Cazals. These frames are so cool someone stole my 20/20 mag.

Nice article Barry, very informative I am surprised no one else has commented on it.

At my office he us deemed "The creepy Cazal Jesus." We tore the cover off, cut the lips out and when we are bored we make him "talk." Its really a lot of fun...

**charan** · 09-04-2011, 02:02 AM

trend or not but that hideous

**rickyforever** · 09-06-2011, 03:04 AM

man, it's not so bad as you said, but really a bit weird lol

**cturtle77** · 09-06-2011, 09:22 AM

Hee hee, we ripped the cover off and mailed it one of our docs (she was creeped out by it) and attached a sticky note on it that says, "I've got my eyes on you." It made for a good laugh.

Thank you. I did have one person actually call me after trying "frame-bevel match mode", and exclaim hallelujah!

In 1992/3 there abouts, I was told my first week at a new company that if I sold this one frame that had been there for years, I would get a raise. The frame was an old and huge gold Cazal pair that they blew dust off of every few months.

A few days later, In walks this guy who asked for "MC Hammer" glasses because he could not find them anywhere. Well, I whipped out the Cazals and he was thrilled. Got a raise my first week.

Barry, great article by the way! I had to dig the magazine out of the trash to find it though, sorry I through it away without reading it.

**David_Garza** · 09-08-2011, 01:25 PM

Timely post! I got my Ultra Palm monthly invoice in the mail this week and what was attached but none other than a full page reprint of the 20/20 cover!

Now I too have the classic cover to show off!
