preview KAOS YOUNG AND UNCONVENTIONAL SPIRIT The new KK343 and KK341 models represent the young and unconventional spirit of KAOS, the eyewear brand of Area98 dedicated to the creative spirits of the under 30 crowd. Made in multilayer acetate, hollowed, and worked to bring to light every single element of the colour spectrum, these frames are fun accessories for those with a playful personality and style. Still Canadian. Still independent. And still one of North America’s most technically advanced optical labs. KOAS frames are designed to be large and square with a playful palette of bright, fluorescent colours almost as if they were opposite magnetic poles, creating an actual mix of colour at the temples and frame fronts. http://www.area98.it The first lab in North America to integrate a new, fully automated digital lens mapping and digital verification system The first lab in North America to introduce Free Form back-surface progressive lenses TEAM UP WITH BUYING POWER!
