The vision of Paul, the mono-named founder of Schizo (a Hong Kong-based spectacles boutique with a cult following), Vintage Glasses aims to return the spirit of artisanship to an accessory that has been somewhat overtaken by mass production.
Channeling bespectacled greats (Andy Warhol, Yves Saint Laurent) & drawing on iconic dead stocks (Number (N)ine x Kurt Cobain, Number (N)ine x Taihachiro, JPG Eiffel Tower glasses, Cutler & Gross), Paul injects a dash of long-forgotten class into his designs that have as much to do with his knowledge & his craftsmen’s skills as it does with the fine materials he uses. Part of this know-how arises from the fact that Paul is himself a fervent collector of antique eyewear, a passion that directly led him to start this business in the first place (in Ueno, Tokyo, & Hong Kong, back in 2000). Paul’s vast private collection has even popped up as movie props on the set of Stephen Chow’s "Shaolin Soccer" & "Kung Fu".
If you have had issues with spectacles that typically slide down your nose, give Vintage Glasses a try. Vintage Glasses takes the business of fitting frame to face seriously, & could just be your lucky ticket to the world of eyewear comfort ;-)
