MYKITA was founded in Berlin, Germany. Just a year later, they unveiled Collection No. 1, a highly innovative functional design comprising simple plug connections that made complex soldered joints and screws redundant. The frames themselves were cut out of stainless sheet steel before being folded into form, providing endless design and fit possibilities. In 2006, they introduced Collection No. 2, made from acetate with its own unique hinge design and screwless/solderless joints. www.mykita.com

One of the most common misconceptions about eyewear, contact lenses, and other vision care products is that "they all come out of the same box." The truth, however, is that not all eyecare products are created equally. Across the eyecare industry there is a huge variance in quality and craftsmanship put into products.
We use only top quality materials and product support to provide you with the best eyecare products. We bring you the best because you deserve it.
