McCandless's reading glasses

Postby LoneWolf » Fri Mar 11, 2011 8:03 am

Hi all,

I've been wandering, trying to find the exact reading glasses seen in the movie 'Into The Wild', but didn't succeed so far. It would be great if someone got any information on these specifick glasses, especially where to buy it!

Many thanks already!,

Peace

Not sure whether you can get the same type that easily today, as it's a quite old-fashioned one, of course.
Why do you want to have glasses like this?

By the way, the real Chris was nearsighted, so he must have used his glasses rather for other situations than reading. ;)

Of Course i understand that the movie is merely an illusion, but i found those glasses to be somewhat more sylvan than any other new and fashionable pair, therefore i wished to have a one alike. But maybe you're right, and are these all banished by cooperative i-diots. Well anyway, thanks for your reply!

Take care

Even if you've always enjoyed perfect eyesight, there will probably come a time (around the age of 40) when you'll need prescription reading glasses. As we age, the lenses in our eyes are less flexible, which means it's harder to read materials that are up close.
