NOCHINO OPTICAL NOCHINO #20. SAFETY GREY X GREY GREEN TO D.GREY (Photochromic Model)

This is a signature model from NOCHINO OPTICAL, bearing the brand name. It's a mid-size, unisex, Asian-fit Boston-style frame.
The fit is designed to suit the majority of people, taking into account the low nose bridge characteristic of Asians.
The rivet parts that connect the hinges are polished using a finishing method called "grinding" after being placed in plastic, and each one is carefully polished to the very end by skilled craftsmen.
The 2-curve lenses, a signature feature of the NOCHINO OPTICAL brand, are neither flat nor typical curved types, but feature a beautiful curved surface reminiscent of old hand-carved glass lenses, and their gleaming surface gives them a luxurious feel.
SAFETY GREY is a sample of the clear gray frame that was manufactured as an issue item for U.S. military personnel from the 1950s to 1968.
As mentioned earlier, the Safety Gray color is a vintage-like color that samples the Clear Gray frame that was manufactured as an issue item for U.S. military personnel from the 1950s to 1968.

Photochromic lenses generally have a lifespan of about three years, although this can vary depending on usage frequency and environment.
Please be aware that the performance may deteriorate with frequent use under UV light, or use and storage in high-temperature environments (such as saunas, baths, or inside cars).
Generally, NOCHINO's photochromic lenses are ordered in batches exclusively for our own products each season, but there may be very slight differences in photochromic performance due to differences in seasonal batches.


Not a full moon, but the one before a full moon.
The Japanese people consider the moon just before its fullness to be the ideal.
The beauty of incompleteness, the beauty of unfinishedness, the beauty of negative space.
It is through the 13th month, the subsequent lack of months, that we see the emergence of things that cannot be expressed in terms of completeness or satisfaction.
By considering how to make what is lacking beautiful,
It evokes a sense of satisfying beauty in people.
Like the thirteenth moon, or the later moon, eyeglasses are incomplete once they leave the craftsman's hands.
We offer our products as the 13th month.
In the Heian period, when The Tale of Genji was created, people were sensitive to the seasons and wore colors that were "appropriate for the season."
Incorporating it into daily life was a pastime of the nobility.
Enjoy the pleasure of wearing colors appropriate for the season in the modern age.
Each piece is completed only when it is anastomosed with its unique owner, a testament to the craftsmanship of Fukui and Sabae.
