MYKITA
MYLON blurs the border between fashion and sports.
State-of-the-art
design coupled with a material that boasts individual adjustability, low
weight and extreme durability make these spectacles both an outstanding
sporting companion and a perfect everyday accessory.
The manufacturing
process for MYLON has won MYKITA recognition in the form of the iF
material award. The collection was honoured with the Red Dot design
award in the field of product design.
Each pair of Mykita Mylon glasses combine seemingly contrary elements
to form a new material. Finest powder, fused into a three-dimensional
shape. Robust and at the same time a snug, contour-hugging fit. With
with an organic look on the surface. But down to the last fibre a
high-tech product.
The
evolution of the MYKITA MYLON frames began with a new production
process:
Selective Laser Sintering enables the creation of objects in
every possible geometrical configuration.
Layer by layer a super-fine
polyamide powder is turned via CO2 laser sintering into
three-dimensional objects that are fed in beforehand in data form.
In
2007 MYKITA began experimenting with the polyamide material, aiming to
pioneer it in the production of eyewear.
Several years of research were
invested in the development of a complex, patented process in which the
raw surface of the material is prepared and rendered wearable in a
series of stages, giving the frames a unique visual and tactile appeal.
