A MODERN EYEWEAR CONCEPT
AKILA is an independent eyewear brand from Los Angeles focused on handmade, limited-run eyewear.
We are environmentally-conscious and craft our eyewear from eco-friendly acetate, optical grade lenses & biodegradable packaging. Style and sustainability can coexist.



FW2023
AKILA's Fall 2023 Essentials Collection features four new silhouettes that are inspired by classics and fine-tuned for modern sensibilities.
The collection adds 3 new sunglasses, 4 new optical styles with blue-light blocking lenses, a new Aluminum shape, and introduces Adaptive lenses to the range with light-responsive tinted lenses that seamlessly transition from day to night.
ESSENTIALS COLLECTION
The Essentials collection is AKILA’s foundation, featuring modern reinterpretations of classic frames.
All AKILA sunglasses are designed in Los Angeles and handcrafted to last a lifetime. Each pair is made from eco-friendly cellulose acetate and plant-based lenses with 100% UVA/UVB protection.
KkCo
Lizard is both brands’ reinvention of a traditional sports frame, putting a fresh twist with unexpected colors on a longtime favorite style.
The frames are influenced by vintage fly fishing sunglasses, featuring a lightweight and curved wraparound design punctuated with polarized lenses, custom-drilled eyelets, and KkCo’s trademark piercing detail through the left temple.
COLLABORATIONS
AKILA partners with friends, artists, and like-minded brands to bring new ideas to market.
