AKILA unveils its lightweight aluminium eyewear collection

The demand and use of aluminium are expanding at a moderate rate. From the automobile industry to fashion, this silvery white metal is used in almost all the prominent sectors. Like, AKILA, a Los Angeles eyewear brand, unveiled its newest collection, which includes five new frames of lightweight aluminium suitable for daily usage.

The new collection has optical and sunglasses alternatives with clear, blue-light-blocking lenses and matte-finished aluminium alloy frames in a flexible, minimalist style. The independent brand's limited-edition eyewear promotes sustainability by using environmentally friendly components such as malleable acetate, optical quality lenses, and plastic-free biodegradable packaging.

"As a strong, sustainable and lightweight metal, aluminum is perfect for eyewear. All glasses in the Aluminum Collection are crafted for style and comfort in keeping with AKILA's modern design ethos," said AKILA.

With a focus on handmade, limited-run eyeglasses, the independent California eyewear company has earned a name for itself on the West Coast. AKILA deliberately connects itself with a neighbourhood that has been bursting with local culture for centuries, a place to explore and consume everything from art to cuisine to music by designating the Lower East Side as its East Coast home.
