Why Italian Craft Stands Apart
Italy has a long tradition in eyewear — known for its quality materials, enduring design, and attention to detail. At J.HYDE:
-
Our Dr. J and HYDE acetate frames use Italian Mazzucchelli acetate, with stainless steel or titanium in our metal frames
-
Our Signature collection is made in Italy
-
Every frame is designed for comfort, durability and contemporary elegance
J.HYDE frames are conceived in Birmingham, with a respect for the eyewear traditions Italy is known for.
