Craftsmanship
When it comes to eyewear, not all frames are created equal. At Loft Optics we invest in craftsmanship. We work exclusively with eyewear designers who work as sustainably as possible and with high-quality materials. Our collection is a thoughtful selection of styles and designs.
Before starting any new collaboration, we will always research where it is made, how, by who... if this is in line with our values, we can start working together. Each designer forms a part of the uniqueness of our collection.

Anne & Valentin is a brand from Toulouse. “Made In France” is a moral commitment for them. They have been collaborating with the same factories in the French Jura Mountains since the start (some 30 years ago), except for some titanium models they manufacture in Japan because the very best titanium is “Made in Japan”.
This brand was launched in 2014 by Paris-born but Los Angeles-based designer Ahlem Manai-Platt.
