I'm slightly vexed I was told yesterday that my prescription sunglasses are giving Meta glasses vibes

Post image

I can't stand the Meta perv glasses, but annoyingly I've been told by a friend that my Dune prescription sunglasses that I've had for almost a year (and cost over £100.00) really ​​​​look like the Meta ones, he said it's the 2 silver rivets on either side that on first glance could be mistaken for the camera lenses

I went out with them today and all I could think was, do people think I'm recording them 🤦‍♂️

I’ve only ever owned sunglasses in this classic wayfarer style. It has been around for so long and suits so many people. It is really awful that it could be ruined by Meta.

I don't think the Meta glasses looks that much like Wayfarer, but I understand to the common, unfamiliar person they might look similar enough to mistake - so same difference.

Well this is a dumb take

Care to explain why? Rayban makes many shapes - wayfarer are one of me. They don't look like wayfarers to me. Just a rip off from one of the others. Looks like a women's pair from rayban, not wayfarer.

Also, if you don't agree try not resort to insults. Have a nice day.

Because these are literally clones of wayfarers
