4 Recommended Glasses for Your First Pair in Your 30s!
DOWNTOWN JOURNAL / FIRST FINE EYEWEAR
Just as you choose your clothes and shoes, you should be particular about your eyewear.
We introduce 4 models with photos that you will want to keep by your side for a long time, starting from your 30s.
01 / THE EVERYDAY CLASSIC
If you're unsure, start with these.
EYEVAN / Sadler|DOWNTOWN Bespoke
EYEVAN, the first Japanese fashion eyewear brand to advocate "wearable glasses." Among their collection, the Sadler is one of the brand's most popular models.
With a perfect balance of curves and angles, it goes well with anything from T-shirts to jackets. A reliable classic for your first pair that works regardless of gender, age, or occasion.


DOWNTOWN Exclusive Special Specification
Color Photochromic Lenses × Titanium Pads.
Light gray indoors, dark gray outdoors. A specification you can enjoy in various everyday situations.
02 / SOFT & INTELLIGENT
Sophistication with a hint of personality.
YUICHI TOYAMA. / U-184 DUD col.04


A brow-line frame that adds an intellectual impression to your eyes. The U-184 DUD is charming for its neutral balance that avoids being too rugged, and is also recommended for women.
Pair them with a shirt for a sincere and calm look. Pair them with weekend wear for a stylish, fashion-forward impression. Enjoy both a sense of propriety and a touch of playfulness in a single pair.
Want a mature look, but don't want to look too stiff.
03 / LIGHT & DISTINCTIVE
Lightweight, with details that stand out.
EYEVAN 7285 / 824 col.800


For those looking for the lightest possible metal frame. The 824 is a model where you can appreciate the interest of the structure itself within its sleek appearance.
A presence that makes people think "those are great glasses" at a glance. Even when worn with simple shirts or knits, the intricate craftsmanship adds expression to your face.
EYEVAN 7285 generally does not reproduce models, so the same one may not always be available. Its scarcity, which makes it unlikely you'll run into someone wearing the same pair, is also a charm.
04 / WEEKEND SUNGLASSES
Make your weekend look cool.
TBD Eyewear / WELT col.Eco Black / Bottle Green


A classic Boston shape that exudes Italian craftsmanship. The WELT, which blends naturally with a mature face, is also recommended as your first high-quality pair of sunglasses.
It pairs well not only with T-shirts and denim but also with jackets and slacks. It fits smoothly even with dressier outfits, tightening up your look on your days off.
Want to look smart even on weekends. Want to choose one pair of long-lasting sunglasses.
What kind of day do you want to wear them on?
Sadler for an everyday staple. U-184 DUD for an intellectual expression. 824 for lightness and character. WELT as your weekend companion.
