Cubitts x YMC Kitano black

YMC and Cubitts come together again for 2026, revisiting the Akira and Kitano frames in a lighter, more understated palette.

Designed in collaboration with YMC creative director Sage Toda-Nation, the frames take cues from the personal style of Japanese filmmakers Akira Kurosawa and Takeshi Kitano — both known for their habit of wearing sunglasses on set. 

The Kitano features a slim, rectangular acetate frame with slightly flared temples and belt-lug detailing — clean, but with a bit of character.

Finished with tinted CR-39 lenses offering full UV protection. Subtle branding sits on the inner temple.

Includes a branded case and lens cloth.
