Under the concept of "neutral," the eyewear brand "YUICHI TOYAMA." has gained popularity both domestically and internationally.
The "Double Dutch Series," released in 2016, draws inspiration from the double dutch jump rope competition that uses two ropes. The frame is constructed with two lines divided at the front joint. This series, where the designer's perspective and functionality are brilliantly fused, has become the brand's signature.
The U-116 "Gropius" is the latest model in the series. Made from titanium and beta titanium, it achieves extreme thinness and lightness while also being durable.
The flexibility of beta titanium creates a fit that gently envelops the head. In today's world where wearing glasses is recommended for self-protection, this is also an ideal model for fashion eyewear.
