NOCHINO OPTICAL YUGEN #2. GLOSS BLACK & CHAMPAGNE GOLD × GREY GREEN to D.GREY (photochromic)

The browline type is one of the representative shapes associated with sunglasses. In both the West and Japan, sunglasses have reigned as a timeless and classical item, unchanged from the past. This browline type has been re-engineered with a reconstructed front inclination angle and fine-tuned dimensions, resulting in an exquisite fit that prevents it from touching the cheeks of those with lower nose bridges, a common feature in Asians. It offers an Asian fit, yet its silhouette is unisex and fits Westerners as well. A major feature is the part that covers the lenses, called the rim.It uses parts with a classical and delicate engraving pattern, frequently used in antique jewelry, along with milgrain, one of the decorative techniques passed down from ancient times in Europe, where small round beads are continuously stamped along the edges and lines of precious metals such as wedding rings.You can enjoy its appearance from three different viewing angles.The term "mil" here comes from the Latin "millegrain," meaning a thousand grains.The number one thousand carries auspicious meanings such as eternity and longevity.It becomes a compelling part precisely because it is a timeless item. The hinge connecting the frame and temples uses a five-barrel hinge, ensuring a robust construction. Screws are manually inserted for each component, according to its specific purpose. This meticulous manual work is a hallmark of Sabae craftsmanship. The 2-curve lens, emblematic of the NOCHINO OPTICAL brand, has a beautiful curvature that is neither flat nor a typical curve, reminiscent of old hand-ground glass lenses, exuding a sense of luxury with its lustrous surface. Furthermore, one of the brand's iconic features is the lineup of 3 versions of photochromic lenses that change color under UV light. The biggest appeal is the unique lens version that changes from clear to a specific color, and a light gray-green lens that is lightly tinted and changes to gray.

Regarding photochromic lenses Photochromic lenses generally have a lifespan of approximately 3 years, depending on usage frequency and environment. Frequent use under UV light or use/storage in high-temperature environments (e.g., saunas, bathrooms, inside cars) may gradually degrade the photochromic performance. Please understand this in advance. Please note that while NOCHINO OPTICAL's photochromic lenses are generally produced in dedicated lots for our own products each season, there may be slight individual differences in the speed and density of the photochromic effect due to differences in lots.
