HUBBLE/SCRAPED MATTE BLACK

Inspired by the sleek browline frames that Polish film music composer and jazz pianist Krzysztof Komeda wore while performing his pioneering compositions, Akoni Eyewear’s new Hubble design channels a midcentury retro futuristic vibe that perfectly captures the three-part blend of optimism, dissent and progress that marked that era. Channeling that same spirit of artistic rebellion, the Hubble clean lines sport thick, sculpted Japanese Acetate brows and adjustable Japanese Titanium temples. To mark the introduction of the Hubble, a special design of 200 numbered frames has been released. Those limited-edition designs feature a striking, tactile Acetate surface crafted by Akoni’s Japanese artisans who have expertly scraped the surface, crafting a one-of-a-kind, subtle-yet-eye-catching, organic linear pattern.
