THE FUTURES EYEWEAR
THE FUTURES EYEWEAR
New Creation, New Style, New Value. FACTORY900 produces "THE FUTURE EYEWEAR” created through continuous innovation. We, at Aoyama Optical, are a small factory who is always manufactured plastic eyeglasses for three generations over 80 years in the capital of Japanese eyewear, Fukui, Japan. During our long history, we have always challenged ourselves and finally have obtained magnificent plastic-forming techniques in 1970. The manufacturing technique is highly regarded as so unique and one-of-a-kind that industry peers cannot even imagine how it is made. In 2000, a head designer Yoshinori Aoyama and we started our own brand to create more sophisticate and exquisite eyewear with the concept “THE FUTURES EYEWEAR”. "900" is derived from the number designated to our factory by the government. Thus, FACTORY900 can handle all the production processes of eyeglasses from start to finish. Gaining global recognition for its unique and distinctive shape and design, our artisans finish the frames individually with great care every day.
DESIGNER
⻘⼭嘉道 Yoshinori AOYAMA In designing FACTORY900, what is important is the "object" itself, and at the core of this is the question, "Can a person cry just by looking at a pair of glasses? Beauty does not reside in "objects". The fact that a person "feels" beauty means that their heart has been moved. So that many people feel beautiful, we have to create something that can push the heart switch of many more people. FACTORY900 is built around this thought.
ORIGINAL 3D MODELING TECHNOLOGY
Aoyama Optical, which has been in business for more than 80 years, is one of the few integrated production factories in the eyeglass manufacturing industry that performs almost all production processes by hand. The 3D modeling, which is unparalleled in the modeling of eyeglasses, is the result of a manufacturing technology that is completely confidential and not disclosed to the public. Even professionals in the field of eyeglass manufacturing are astonished by the beauty of the modeling that is created from a single acetate sheet. Craftsmen work day by day to create eyeglass frames that can only be made here.
ORIGINAL HINGE SYSTEM
Our original spring hinge system is stretchable, so even voluminous eyeglasses do not feel heavy, and do not tire easily even when worn for long periods of time. Different hinges are used according to the characteristics of each part number to provide optimum wearing comfort. The frames are also designed so that when a load is applied to the frame, the spring hinges bear the load to prevent damage to the frame itself as much as possible.
2023 AUTUMN WINTER COLLECTION
Retro and Future. This is a model that gives form to the opposing axes of time. The driving force behind the design is the initial impulse of the designer, Mr. Aoyama, when he first encountered the vintage eyeglasses, and he has incorporated the concept of time, not only functionality and form, into the eyeglass design.
