Continuing to explore the features of Mykita frames, we decided to demonstrate the lightness and flexibility in a photo shoot of the new arrivals. To do this, we weighed each model, took a thin metal wire and two magnets to help demonstrate the weight of the glasses.

So far, the store has received models from three of the brand’s lines: Carlo sunglasses from the very first collection No. 1, classic panto frames Ede and neon orange aviators Steen from the lightweight Lite line, and two futuristic frames from the experimental Mylon Hybrid collection, which combines an ultra-lightweight frame made of Mylon 3-D printing material with a sheet steel structure.

We’ve already written that despite their apparent thinness, sheet steel frames are flexible and strong, allowing for better fit customization and making the glasses more durable than they might seem here →
