Matsuda, glasses and sunglasses

Matsuda vintage glasses and sunglasses of the 80s and 90s, designed for tomorrow.

In the 1960s, Mitsuhiro Matsuda experimented with Western designs and traditional Japanese fashion. He created trendsetting, innovative designer pieces that always had a connection to the past. Matsuda was inspired by Gothic architecture, Victorian art and American jazz. These influences made his designer glasses look like a cultural treasure right from the moment they were launched on the market.

So, it is not surprising that Matsuda creations are often called steampunk glasses. Steampunk (also called retrofuturism) is the idea of the future from the perspective of earlier times. The Terminator sunglasses by Sarah Connor are also Matsuda sunglasses, because Linda Hamilton wore Matsuda 2809 sunglasses in the science fiction classic “Terminator 2” (1991).

Eyewear craftsmanship with 250 production steps

Just as sophisticated as the design is the quality of every single pair of Matsuda glasses. Although the Japanese eyewear manufacturer by no means shut itself away to technical innovations, the focus has been on traditional craftsmanship for over five decades.

Each Matsuda spectacle is handmade and consists of 250 individual production steps. Fabulous quality that you feel immediately as soon as you hold a pair of Matsuda sunglasses in your hands. Due to this enormously complex production process, Matsuda glasses are also only manufactured in very small quantities.

The old vintage Matsuda sunglasses, as we offer them, are almost impossible to find any more. These rarities are for all quality lovers and spectacle wearers who appreciate the cultured life.
