Sunglasses Featuring Designs That Defy Global Norms

AMBUSH®, which began with conceptual jewelry and now also offers an apparel line, is a brand helmed by VERBAL and YOON. The duo, active as artists and designers, are fervent collectors of MYKITA and maintain close ties with the MYKITA HAUS team, making this collaboration a natural progression.

VERBAL commented, "I felt a resonance with the world of MYKITA's design team through their bold designs, material choices, and unique color palettes. For this collaboration, we focused on creating a unique model that fuses the artistic sensibilities of both brands."

MYKITA co-founder and Creative Director Moritz Krueger shared his thoughts on the collaboration: "I met VERBAL and YOON in 2010, and we immediately hit it off. I was confident that we could realize a collaboration together. This project was born from the simple yet unprecedented idea of 'looking at reality from a different perspective.'"

True to those words, "VERBAL" has become a pair of sunglasses characterized by designs that overturn conventional wisdom. The stainless steel frame features mirrored lenses set in reverse, reflecting a topsy-turvy world. As VERBAL describes it, "The browline sunglasses have become pop art." A straight bar extends above the rim, creating a geometrically beautiful and exceptional model.

Available in three colorways—Shiny Black / Black / Black, Gold / Red / Gold, and Silver / Blue / Silver—each featuring distinct colors for the frame, bar, and lenses, the combinations highlight AMBUSH®'s signature hues, creating an eye-catching effect. The MYKITA + AMBUSH® "VERBAL" model first launched exclusively at MYKITA Shop Tokyo, AMBUSH® WORKSHOP, and mykita.com, before its global release.
