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

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.
