Customizable Driving Glasses: The "S-86T"
A collaboration has been realized between Four Nines, which pursues ultimate comfort and sophisticated design with its proprietary technology, and the Toyota "TOYOTA 86," a sports car with a low center of gravity and intuitive handling. The "S-86T," customizable driving glasses, have been born.

Perfect for Everyday Wear and Driving
The "TOYOTA 86" was created by Toyota with the concept of "sports car = culture." It's a car packed with the appeal of "driving pleasure" and the "joy of creating your own TOYOTA 86," thanks to its nimble handling, boxer engine, and low center of gravity. Furthermore, to embody the idea that a sports car is not just the vehicle itself but a "culture built with the user," Toyota planned collaborations with various brands that Japan is proud of worldwide. For eyewear, Four Nines partnered with them to produce the "S-86T."
The keywords for the "S-86T" are "customization" and "driving." By swapping the included pads, temple tips, and lenses, the metal brow, a signature style of Four Nines, is elevated into driving glasses. Of course, when worn as everyday glasses, Four Nines' technology and design ensure a comfortable fit and a sophisticated look.
The base frame incorporates proprietary technologies such as the "Double Front Structure," which provides front-end strength, stability, and a sense of depth, and the "Reverse R Temple," which alleviates stress when worn as glasses, preventing frame distortion and maintaining a comfortable fit.
The original drive color lenses, available in gray and brown, can be used even at night, and the high-curve lenses with contrast-enhancing effects create optimal vision and sightlines for driving. Additionally, three color variations are available, all featuring customized parts developed exclusively for the "S-86T," such as straight temple tips with the "TOYOTA 86" logo that are easy to attach and detach.
With customization, the "S-86T" can be used for both everyday wear and driving. Just like the "86" sports car, you're sure to find "your own unique glasses."
