HIDEO KOJIMA x J.F. REY: Exciting New Collaboration

J.F. REY and renowned Japanese video game designer HIDEO KOJIMA are thrilled to announce their latest collaboration, HIDEO KOJIMA x J.F. REY. This partnership, built on years of mutual respect and a shared commitment to innovation, merges their distinct creative visions. Known for their boundary-pushing approaches in their respective domains, J.F. REY and HIDEO KOJIMA unite their talents to craft a collection that blends avant-garde aesthetics with neo-retro influences. The result is a striking fusion of innovative design and timeless elegance, seamlessly bridging the worlds of video games and fashion.

The new collection, crafted by the J.F. REY design studio under the artistic guidance of HIDEO KOJIMA, showcases an impressive range of seven distinct models. Featuring ICONICS, CARBON INSIDE, and POLARIZED, this collection encompasses options for optics, sunglasses, and gaming. Each piece merges KOJIMA’s vision of futuristic technology with J.F. REY’s renowned elegance and craftsmanship. This collection embodies KOJIMA’s trademark perfectionism, technological passion, and meticulous attention to detail, hallmarks of his celebrated work.

The ICONICS collection features three distinct models, each embodying HIDEO KOJIMA’s signature design. These unique creations blend aesthetics with high-quality materials and ergonomic comfort, reflecting the designer's innovative style. The HKxJF04 and HKxJF05 frames showcase a sophisticated mix of acetate and premium titanium or stainless steel. They highlight subtle light effects on the front, achieved through acetate and laser-cut metal with KOJIMA’s distinctive touch. An exclusive metal insert with the KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS logo adorns the end-tips, adding a unique detail for fans. Additionally, each temple features a quilted titanium Flex for a natural, adjustable fit.

The HKxJF10 model distinguishes itself with its innovative blend of stainless steel and acetate, infused with the signature elements of HIDEO KOJIMA’s universe. Building on previous collaborations, this design incorporates GAMING lenses that leverage the benefits of these materials, including superior visual clarity, shock resistance, and scratch resistance. Featuring a yellow tint, the lenses filter out 100% of ultraviolet rays and block blue light from screens, enhancing visual comfort during extended gaming sessions. The yellow tint also boosts color contrast and detail, improving image perception in low-light conditions and allowing gamers to react more swiftly.

HIDEO KOJIMA’s artistic vision infuses the design with a unique KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS signature on the temples. The collection features sophisticated prints like matte black, blue/black camo, marble, and granite effect acetate. These elements blend seamlessly with the subtle, textured accents of carbon, creating a harmonious and visually striking look.

This collection redefines the iconic solar clip-on frames seen in the HIDEO KOJIMA X J.F. REY series. It features two acetate optical models, each enhanced with a Flip-Up aluminum solar clip available in black or grey. This clip is meticulously designed to integrate seamlessly with the frames, offering a modern and distinctive accessory. Fully removable and articulated, the clip includes polarized lenses that excel in high-glare conditions. The frames merge retro influences with contemporary design, incorporating stylistic elements from HIDEO KOJIMA’s graphic universe, such as jungle patterns, camouflage effects, crystal blue, and brushed black.

Embracing both functionality and cutting-edge style, this collection is crafted for those who value intricate design and exceptional craftsmanship. Every piece in HIDEO KOJIMA X J.F. REY collection promises not only practical benefits but also a striking aesthetic appeal.
