FORMAISON FM-2010 in stock now!

This will be the first brand introduced in our store.

This is an original factory brand of Hamamoto Technical, which specializes in manufacturing metal frames in Sabae City, Fukui Prefecture.

 

 

The brand is proposed by a factory that is highly reputed in the industry for producing solid and well-made frames, so there is no reason for the quality to be bad. No wonder some of the most prestigious brands are made here.

 

 

These are very simple metal frames for men, but there is a lot of ingenuity in them.

The yoloi and bridge are decorated with a pattern reminiscent of a Dupont lighter, providing a moderate accent.

 

 

In addition, although the front part is only a thin rim line when viewed from the front, it is thicker when viewed from the side, making it suitable for people with strong myopia.

It uses "Spartan hinges," one of the synonyms for high-end frames, and is made by cutting parts instead of brazing, so it is quite strong and can create a sense of design unity. There are various theories as to why Spartan hinges are used, but the story goes that the technique was so difficult that it could not be made without Spartan education.

 

 

Metal parts are attached to the temple ends, and the back part is made heavier so that the center of gravity of the glasses does not come too far forward.

 

 

These are high-end frames with the ingenuity of a factory brand scattered throughout.
