Facewear - Recreate Older Head Slot Items

I, for one, was incredibly excited to learn that facewear would be receiving its own slot in Dawntrail. Having glasses on my character has always been very important to me, but this limiting my headgear options was frustrating. However, now that Dawntrail has come and the facewear slot has been added, I find myself wishing that we had access to some of the old glasses headgear as facewear. I'm personally a huge fan of the Elegant Rimless Glasses, but the Rimless Glasses facewear is a completely different style of frames, and there's nothing really equivalent in the current facewear.

It would be really nice if we could have some of the current head-locked facewear as actual facewear options, and potentially even have a way to exchange our head-locked facewear for the corresponding facewear pieces.

The whole reason I'm not using the face wear atm is because the elegant rimless glasses aren't an option. I was really excited to use this feature so I could wear hats with it, but I'll stick to my glasses for now.

I just found out that to get the False Classic Spectacles, you need to do Free Company voyages. They're not tradeable, so why lock them behind something that requires a Free Company? Surely there has to be a better way to handle this...such as allowing us to convert already owned headwear into facewear?

Grated, I'm not sure how Voyages work, but my FCs subs are in use. Does that mean the person/people who sent them out get them if it appears?

The glasses I’m wearing in my picture I wish could be made headshot items because I do want to wear hats but my character in my headcanon is also near blind so needs his goggles to see so I don’t want to remove them

It’s a tradeable consumable, should come up on the market board for roughly 2m if you search “classic” or “the faces we wear” I think the category is called.

figured i might as well throw my vote in.
I myself basicly only use the elegant rimless glasses and would rly like to be able to combine them with a headpiece and was pretty disapointed by the selection we got when they added the facewear with DT
