What style of sunglasses did Eldritch wear during the Vision Thing era? They're sort of a cross between aviators and wayfarers.

Also, where can I get a pair :P :innocent:

Dunno about them, but I have a pair of mirrored aviators (a la -- well, mirrored aviators) and a pair of mountaineering glasses (a la Dominion)

Me, sad?

There're more parallels between him and Jimbo than you can shake a stick at. :D

£ shop shades only- they never last longer than a couple of weeks regardless of the amount spent on them. :(

They're fuckin' sunglasses/underpants/socks!

"Het a lyfe"

Oh BTW:
Aviators since the 70s and new gear aviator stylee from iCON - I did have a brief flirtation with 'cheap sunglasses' Rayban stylee a'la JA-MCs (but not Rayban) c.1986
M&S - pants
M&S - socks

and I haven't been 'Dirk' for quite a long time, like 24 years

:von: Aviators rock hard! :von:
(I must admit that my shades-fetish started well before I knew the Sissies. I got the shades I wear in that linky even before Floodland was aired.)
..I always liked the band for the good taste, apparently. ;D

*I* even owned some aviators, thanks entirely to my obsession with ol' Android in that era. Too bad they looked like utter crap on me! :lol: :| :urff:
