Akoni

While clearly continuing to be inspired by laidback spirit of classic SoCal surf culture, the latest spin of Akoni’s popular Columba frame also incorporates a recent Japanese design breakthrough. Starting with a maximum thickness of the finest Japanese acetate, Akoni’s artisans have expertly scraped back the surface, crafting a one-of-a-kind, subtle-yet-eye-catching, organic linear pattern. Smaller than the original Columba sunglass frame, this new silhouette, with its striking surface of tactile and imperfect markings, forms part of an Akoni collaboration with Zeiss, one of the world’s finest manufacturers of eyeglass lenses.
