I am torn between either the 4 legged Turquise Frogskins or the white 24k gold Jupiter. Ive heard the jupiters stay on your face better and are also cheaper any one else tried either and got any pros or cons?

ive never really noticed that jupiters stay on your face better, but my frogskins stay on fine. theyre pretty high quality, but i think the choice is really whether or not you want more traditional (frogskins) or more modern, streamlined (jupiter). id go with frogskins cause i like the classic look of them, but you cant go wrong with either. also, frogskins are a bit more rare, since jupiters arent really limited edition like frogskins kinda are

My turqoise frogskins nearly got me laid. If I was drunk enough to not be in the "taking advantage of" category then it would have been easy. She came up to me, said "nice shades" then proceeded to start making out with me. Not joking.

Dunno if that answers your question. If not, then I'll say that they fit my face really well and I have no problems with them falling off. There's also something to be said about having the retro logo rather than the new one, and having limited edition glasses. If the price is similar between the two I'd go for the frogskins if I were you.

Froggies.


The re-sale value is something to take into consideration too. They hold their value pretty well fo sho b/c of the limited #.

Plus they're sick.

Jupiters have much more of a wrap frame, that hold your head better. Frogskins are a pretty straight back style armpiece that stay on ok, but nowhere near as good as Jupiters.
