Cyberpunk Elegance

Of course, the world has seen many masterpieces of eyewear design, but J. F. Rey’s limited edition Hideo Kojima Eyewear Collection is unprecedented. Jean-François Rey for whom innovation is the key, is the renowned eyewear designer who decided to collaborate with Hideo Kojima – the famous video game auteur who authored Metal Gear Solid and Death Stranding. Such cooperation has resulted in an interesting limited edition line that provides innovations in the sphere of eyewear. The essence of this collection is Kojima’s shocking artistic concepts and Rey’s incomparable masterful skill in designing outstanding eyepieces. This leads to the exposure of unique models, which harmoniously integrate neo-retro design solutions with modern ones. All the works in this collection also stand as acts of co-creation between two industry-leading innovators.

The J. F. Rey Hideo Kojima Eyewear collection is indeed an edgy, futuristic-based eyewear line that is not afraid to break the mold of tradition. Having been inspired by the environment and themes of Kojima’s cyberpunk video games, the architectural elements of the designs include sharp curves, non-orthogonal forms, and new composite structures. Materials are the collection’s key assets and are carefully chosen to meet expectations in terms of appearance and sustainability. Granite-effect acetate is utilized in the frames because it produces a surface with added texture and desired depth of field. Besides its sophisticated look, carbon fiber is incorporated into the external components due to its strength. The following are some of the best quality materials that not only make the eyewear luxurious to look at but also durable and comfortable for the wearer.

  • HKXJF04: Made out of acetate and stainless steel, the intended product is the round frame shape of the sunglasses and prescription eyeglasses. This model has been developed based on the male figure and demonstrates a perfect balance of mature aesthetics with overlays of intelligent style.
