Understand the event
At SILMO Paris, the eyewear brand Hakino has unveiled a new customization feature for its wooden frames. The update involves the addition of colored inserts, which are designed to complement the existing construction that pairs wooden fronts with acetate temples. According to reports from Lunettes Originales, this new element significantly expands the brand's design possibilities, offering customers up to 135,000 potential combinations. This development marks an evolution in Hakino's product line, moving beyond standard wooden aesthetics to include vibrant color options within the frame structure. While other brands such as ERKERS1879 also debuted collections at the event, including a Flight Collection inspired by Charles Lindbergh’s 1927 flight, Hakino's specific innovation lies in this modular approach to wood and color integration. The report highlights the technical aspect of these inserts enhancing the customizable nature of the frames without altering the core material composition of the front or temples.
