KAMEMANNEN

Collection: KAMEMANNEN

The history of KameManNen, Japan's oldest eyewear brand, began in 1917 in Fukui City, with a plating factory called "Kimura Seisakusho".

After World War II, this was transformed into an eyewear factory based in Sabae , thus giving birth to KameManNen . In 1981, KameManNen successfully used titanium, known for its durability and lightness , to produce eyewear for the first time in the world, introducing Sabae 's high production quality to the world. The name KameManNen comes from a Japanese proverb, " A crane lives a thousand years, a tortoise ten thousand years " (Tsuru wa sennen, Kame wa mannen in Japanese. A proverb describes longevity)," which was the wish of the founder, Kikujiro Kimura . We aspire to continue the KameManNen concept of pursuing not only the beauty of the design itself, but also the precise production of eyewear of the highest quality .
