The Vision of MYKITA

Known for its unending search for innovation, the visionary brand MYKITA and its founders Moritz Krueger, Philipp Haffmans, Daniel Haffmans, and Harald Gottschling proudly boast its premium materials and years of expertise. This German independent brand has made a name by building a reputable portfolio since 2003, allowing them to score innovative collaborations with big fashion brands Martine Rose, Maison Margiela, and many more. A defining element behind the brand’s success is the MYKITA HAUS in Berlin, where they've gathered expert artisans from all over the world under a single roof to design and handcraft their incomparable eyewear collections equipped with thorough research and advanced technology. All these facts only certify the brand’s promise to provide the best design and quality.

The brand name MYKITA was inspired from their first factory which was a former day nursery, and is derived from an abbreviated term for Kindergarten, “Kita”. The founders didn’t have any background in the industry, and the name was symbolic of them learning and going back to basics.

The founders wanted to exude a cool allure and modern approach to their designs and made sure to produce durable and high-quality eyewear using lightweight premium materials. Their collections offer a wide array of choices, from modern and minimal designs to exaggerated styles designed for people who love to stand out extraordinarily. Their selections have captured the attention of fashion trendsetters like Lady Gaga and Beyonce.
