Drawing inspiration from the stitching on clothing, bags and shoes, the Eyelet frames uses stitches as a functional locking mechanism and is performed with extreme attention to detail and finish using hand-executed techniques. The ¡°stitch-locking¡± system replaces the conventional screw locking system and the process is eco-friendly with no soldering involved.

This is the beginning of Eyelet ¨C the name means ¡°stitch- locking eyewear¡±. The Eyelet is the world first stitch-locking eyewear using nylon string to lock the lenses within the rims of the frame.
