Introducing a collaboration between two industry leaders of engineering, design and quality made in Germany - the partnership between MYKITA and Leica is defined by its shared commitment to holistic product development, pioneering technology and precision craftsmanship. The debut collection pairs the innovative product engineering of the independent eyewear manufacturer with the iconic design, finest lenses and optics from the premium camera brand.

Designed in collaboration with Leica and handcrafted at the MYKITA HAUS in Berlin, the MYKITA | LEICA collection is defined by its reduced, functional design focused on superior performance. Seamless mechanical solutions and material connections echo the beautiful precision engineering of Leica’s iconic products and create a refined eyewear aesthetic.

To create sunglasses with uncompromising quality and clarity of vision, MYKITA and Leica have pioneered sun lenses with optical grade quality. The organic lenses are ground and polished from a cast lens blank in a process normally reserved for prescription lenses. The lens is also distinguished by the specially developed AquaDura^® Vision Pro coating, adapted from the field of sport optics and professional photography. This achromatic anti-reflective coating provides invisible protection against rear reflections without the usual colour sheen. It protects against water, dirt and damage, preventing fogging and facilitating effortless removal of fingerprints and stains. All lenses offer complete UV protection; polarised lenses filter harmful light components, such as glare and surface reflections.
