Lindberg titanium frames. They are really fucking expensive relative to the yearly disposable frames people get normally, but I've had the same frames for 6 years.
  1. they look the same as the day I bought them
  2. they're so light I forget they're on my face
  3. they're practically indestructible
  4. they don't have screws so there's nothing to come loose
  5. the frame is constructed of a single gauge of titanium "wire" which is minimal in the best way

You've inspired me to buy this.
I haven't bought a water bottle since I lost the stainless steel one I used during college ... reminds me the main risk of BIFL stuff is losing it.
