After our first participation at the International optical trade show of Tokyo IOFT, in October last year, Moko has made new friends.
Our mascot proudly shows our creations at 3T, Hi-end store in the prestigious Ginza department store of Tokyo. We thank their commercial team who has become great ambassadors for these innovative frames creation.

Here you are some words from Mr. Tezuka, owner of 3T Japan.

“The product is light and is beautifully designed. It has been very well received by our clients. Not only does Moko fit well, various lens attachment options and numerous frame sizes allow for light glasses even for those with thick lenses. The interchangeable temple tips and rim inserts allow us to customize the frames for our customers”. Mr. TEZUKA – 3T Ginza – Tokio / Japon

A good opportunity for all of us to start learning Japanese !

Always on top of innovation, Oko Eyewear is proud to join Media Aces, the Association for Corporate and Eiropean Social Media: european companies use more and more blogs, Facebook, Twitter, etc. and we strongly believe those tools are the best way to communicate over the web. Together with Ericsson France, Société Générale, SNCF (french railway) or MMA (french insrance company), we count among this association first members, thanks to Hervé Kabla and blogAngels, our “web angels”.

I will be at the Media Aces Conference. It will occur on dec. 14th at the Grande Arche, and it’s less expensive than watching movies at the theater.

Agnès Fedou was right to declare as Okologist on our  Facebook fans page. Her statement prompted us to state the first Okology Manifesto,  that here.

Whether short-sighted, long-sighted or astigmatic, at any age, of any sex, or from any country, we use our faces on a
daily basis to build our identity and culture.

However, this quest, both on an individual and collective basis, is a little fragile these days, as faces reflect our moods, feelings and thoughts. And in these days of financial, epidemic, economic and social crises, sadly our faces show more pain than joy.
