KRINK
COLLABORATION
Iconic New York street art supply studio KRINK worked with AKILA Eyewear on a limited-edition aluminum take of the fan-favorite Hi-Fi frame.
The updated Hi-Fi sunglasses feature an aluminum frame with matte-black finish, exposed metal KRINK branded cores in acetate temples. Each frame comes with an AKILA branded K-42 paint marker from KRINK.
Summer 2024
ESSENTIALS
AKILA’s Summer 2024 collection offers timeless styles with contemporary innovation. This season features four new designs inspired by throwback looks while introducing subtle new quirks to keep things fresh.
Every frame in the new collection pairs plant-based acetate with recycled lenses, furthering AKILA’s mission to make style and sustainability coexist.
Powerplant
COLLABORATION
We teamed up with famed Los Angeles motorcycle shop Powerplant on a new frame called P16.
These sunglasses draw heavy inspiration from Southern California motorcycle culture, featuring a classic silhouette with bolted rivets at each end, engraved paisley designs on the temple tips and faceted corners.

Call Me 917
COLLABORATION
As a self-professed “sunglass connoisseur,” Call Me 917 founder and professional skateboarder Alex Olsen connected with AKILA to create something that embodied both brands’ affinity for fresh looks and classic-inspired design.
The result is Noslos, a chunky rectangular frame influenced concurrently by streetwear and high-end style.
