Comments about Derek Cardigan 7008 Rootbeer:
I really do like them i normally dont write reviews but i really thought i should write one for these. Since reviews always help me. if your are looking for trendy nerdy glasses like these but have a small round face i think these would be perfect for you. I love the color it is brown but not as light as shown in the picture. im looking forward to buying more glasses like these i love this website!

Comments about Derek Cardigan 7008 Rootbeer:
I am SO impressed with Coastal! These glasses are everything I've been looking for in a Wayfarer (dare I say "hipster" style glasses). They're the perfect size for my rather large oval shaped head -- they're not goofy large, but enough to make the frames stand out. If in doubt, go for this size because some of the other Derek Cardigan glasses just look huge! I was actually in between the Rootbeer & the Smoke color, but got Smoke. It's a darker grey, almost black (kind of like the picture on the model) but in the sun it looks kinda gradient. Ordering with Coastal was a breeze -- I messed up my prescription, they changed it quickly, and I got my glasses in 3 days! No wonder they do a free pair, I'll be coming back for all my glasses needs here! I hardly ever wear my contacts anymore.

Comments about Derek Cardigan 7008 Rootbeer:
This is my second pair of Derek Cardigan frames and I love them even more! They fit my round face perfectly and I am now wearing them everyday and switching it up with my other pair. I love the color of this frame because it is a darker brown than what the picture shows and it fits my skin tone. One little thing that I noticed was that these frames come down my nose a little bit at times but it's not something that really bothers me. Overall, I am in love with these frames and am considering to get more since I love Derek Cardigan and you guys always some sale going on!

Comments about Derek Cardigan 7008 Rootbeer:
There's no better feeling than getting a great product and loving every thing about it! I love these frames and were originally the ones I was going to get first but I got the 7003 green tortoiseshell which I love also! I really love Derek Cardigan and this frame has it all- they're lightweight, the color is more darker than the pic which I love, they're not so big that they look goofy, but they still fit my round face perfectly. I'm taking turns and using this frame everyday now, but I'm pretty sure I will be rotating between more pairs! I cannot say anything negative about this frame I absolutely love it!

Comments about Derek Cardigan 7008 Rootbeer:
I typically always wear my contacts except for at night, so I wanted a pair of glasses that I would enjoy wearing out when I needed a break from contacts. It's safe to say that I will be wearing these glasses on a daily basis!! I have a low nose bridge, but these don't slide off my face at all. Shipping only took 2 days when it was estimated to take much longer...overall great deal!

Good for people who do not have much of a bridge on their nose. These glasses do not have nose pads. I have a round face and thought it was good fit.

Comments about Derek Cardigan 7008 Rootbeer:
I wear my glasses everyday so I was looking for something that was going to fulfill that need. I was looking for brown frames to add to my wardrobe and these. were. it. Beware! The frames are darker color than in the picture. They look amazing nonetheless. I got these in the first-pair-free promo and was so impressed!
For some reason when I got them the prescription seemed a tad strong, though I know I entered it right. My eyes quickly adjusted.
These frames are lightweight, and are very very comfortable. My only beef with them is that the screws on the side need tightening almost every other day -- though that is something I'm willing to do since the screwdriver is included! What a great thing Coastal. Thank - you!

Comments about Derek Cardigan 7008 Rootbeer:
I got this pair under Coastal's 'First Pair Free' deal. When I first saw the promo, I was rather skeptical. Yet, I decided to take a chance and ordered this pair as I've always been a fan of Wayfarer style glasses...and boy, am I glad I did.
After receiving my pair of Derek Cardigans, I couldn't be happier! These glasses are on par with my RayBan Wayfarer sunglasses in terms on quality build, albeit being a bit lighter (which is actually more comfortable for extended use).
My only qualm is that the glasses were rather loose when I first received them in the mail. However, everyone's face is unique and they fit perfectly after a quick adjustment from my optometrist.
Even if I hadn't gotten my first pair free, I'd definitely repurchase them knowing the quality they bring for the price. I've already recommended this site several times since, so thanks Coastal for such an awesome deal! :D
