MYKITA JARA Optical

The MYKITA Jara is an optical frame, handmade in Berlin. MYKITA was founded in Berlin in 2003 by Moritz Krüger, Harald Gottschling, Daniel Haffmans and Philipp Haffmans, and still designs and builds every frame at the MYKITA HAUS, its modern manufactory in a landmarked red-brick building on Köpenicker Straße by the Spree. MYKITA MYLON is 3D printed at the Berlin manufactory using selective laser sintering, which fuses fine polyamide powder layer by layer. MYKITA calls MYLON an exceptionally light and durable high-tech material. MYKITA calls it a patented screwless hinge system, so there is nothing to loosen and nothing for an optician to tighten. The frame is built from MYLON. Lens width 47mm, bridge 22mm, temple length 134mm. Sintered polyamide flexes and returns to shape rather than holding a bend. Our opticians adjust MYLON with heat in store, the way acetate is fitted. Available at Visionary Optics' three NYC locations with same-day ZEISS prescription lenses, or online.
