Belgian eyewear brand "theo"

Theo

Theo

theo is a Belgian eyeglass brand established in 1987. The brand name is a transposition of the spelling of designer Patrick Hoet's last name. Theo focuses on making eyeglasses that speak of sensibility. Theo is not only concerned with designing frames, but also "designs with the wearer's individuality in mind and creates glasses while incorporating the latest technology necessary to achieve this. This is why our frames have been enthusiastically supported by eyeglass lovers from all over the world. These eyeglasses fit Japanese people's face perfectly and bring out the individuality of the wearer.

“Jacques Durand”, a favorite of Ryuichi Sakamoto

Jacques Durand

From April 2018, Odd Optical started handling "Jacques Durand". The brand was established in 2008 by Jack Durand, who has many years of experience in the European eyewear industry since the late 70's.

The frame is retro, but not classic. The front design has soft lines and a unique matte color, and the brand name and model name are engraved on the invisible parts. French-style glasses that combine classical and new.

"EnaLloid" produced by craftsmen in Gifu Prefecture

Enaloid

Founded in 1947, this is a brand of eyeglasses manufactured by Ena Megane (optical), a plastic frame manufacturer in Nakatsugawa, Gifu Prefecture. The company places more emphasis on quality than on productivity, and all the processes are made in an integrated manner.

Especially when it comes to polishing the frame, it takes about three times as long as usual, and the final finish is hand-polished. It is gaining popularity due to its fineness and fashionability unique to domestic production.

The glasses handled at Odd Optical are all unique, yet never boring. Until we interviewed the two men, I had never thought of eyeglasses as anything more than a tool for seeing. However, through this interview, I felt that by enjoying glasses as a way to change one's mood, just like changing one's clothes, one's daily life can become more exciting and enjoyable.

"I don't like glasses that can found everywhere"
"I don't want to use same item as other people"
"I want unique glasses"

Those who say this are especially worth checking out. Odd Optical is a place where you can meet your favorite one that changes your sense of values.
