Mykita’s own MYLON

Saturday, July 7th, 2012


A truly innovative collection from Mykita, the 2011 iF material award-winning series “Mylon”!

“These are glasses that redefine the borders between the worlds of fashion and sports. All MYLON models boast individual adaptability, low weight and outstanding durability” - mylon.mykita.com

The 3D printing process termed SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) digitally renders three-dimensional objects layer by layer using laser-based heat in polyamide powder.

Each frame comes glazed with Zeiss tinted sun lenses including “an exclusive gold anti-glare, hydrophobic, nano-coating.” Tints provided were specifically catered toward increased visibility for golfers on the green and handily a nice contrast to the natural greys that Vancouver persists in providing.

Mykita is the first company to begin making eyewear with the SLS technology, starting several years ago with project collaborations with designers Rad Hourani, Romain Kremer, Bernhard Willhelm and more recently, Moncler.
