Akila is an independent eyewear brand based in Los Angeles focused on handmade unisex sunglasses. The label’s mission is to provide eco-friendly designs and practices for an overall premium collection of accessories. Their sustainable design utilizes a plant-based acetate that contains fibers from cotton and wood pulp. The combination of these elements provides a natural bioplastic that can withstand wear and offer a luxe finish.  Many of their collections take inspiration from traditional eyewear silhouettes that are timeless and functional. Each frame is handcrafted and follows a unisex style that is applicable to present-day and future fashion trends.  Made for 21st-century simulation, the brand takes pride in its traditional and imaginative frame. AKILA has seen major success and has collaborated with top brands such as Rokit, Pleasures, and HUF.
