![]() AKILA lenses are Optical Class 1 nylon lenses, making them thick, scratch-resistant, and 100% UVA/UVB resistant. ![]() The brand sources from the best providers in the world to ensure transparency and quality.

If you’re skeptical of a brand claiming to do so much so well, you’re not alone. The brand’s contemporary-yet-quirky styles, bold colors, and clean lines would suggest a hefty price tag, but AKILA is rooted in anti-industry pricing (aka that perfect balance of expensive enough to ensure quality materials and ethical practices, but affordable enough to grab on a treat-yourself day). Seemingly everywhere (and impressively aware of its demo), AKILA leaves a memorable, cool-kid impression online. And the woman who stopped me on the street to compliment the pair I was finally able to snag after many sold-out months. And to a friend who was sporting a pair on our neighborhood walk last month. If you’ve recently browsed for new sunnies, have uttered so much as ‘sungl–’ around your phone, or – if we’re being honest – even thought about eyewear, you’ve likely seen an ad for AKILA soon after.
