My guest this week is Jason Kirk, director of the family firm Kirk and Kirk eyewear. We talk about how we go about buying glasses, why they can be so expensive, the differences in the material used for frames and the varieties of lenses, whether it matters where things are made, buying from the behemoths of the optical world versus an independent shop, how glasses fit and whether you should use a stylist or find your own expression.Kirk and Kirk can be found at kirkandkirk.comGarmology is researched, booked, hosted, edited, published, paid for and everything else by Nick Johannessen.
