A crisp expression of 1980s precision, this Kenmark aviator from their Affinity line carries a squared silhouette softened by a deep blue gradient lens that fades into light with quiet control. The slim titanium frame in a muted gunmetal tone feels almost weightless, allowing the lenses to take center stage in a calm, tonal composition. There is a subtle modernity in its restraint, where technical craftsmanship meets a refined, atmospheric mood.

Historical Context
Founded in 1972 by Mark Kerman, Kenmark Optical began as an American eyewear company developing house brands before expanding into licensed collections. The company’s eyewear history is documented from the early 1980s, with the Kenmark trademark recorded for eyeglass-frame distribution and use beginning in 1981. Vintage Kenmark frames were produced through international manufacturing networks, including Korea and Japan, reflecting the company’s broad sourcing approach. 

Their designs range from classic rounded and rectangular opticals to more expressive semi-rimless and geometric forms, often combining clean construction with practical detailing. The exact years when Kenmark began producing frames specifically in Korea or Japan are not reliably documented, so those manufacturing origins are best attributed to individual surviving examples rather than a fixed production date.

Overall rating: 4.9 / 5 from 47 reviews.

Very clean and a neat add-on to what seems to be a soft launch to my sunglasses collection. If the Neo glasses are still available within time I promise, I'll order them.

Was a bit worried about authenticity but was pleasantly surprised by how excellent the delivery was. Great quality specs with included accessories, thanks AZYR, look forward to ordering again!

The Agents | 2003 Matrix Sunglasses

So unique and always get a compliment when I wear these. They’re also the most comfortable glasses I’ve ever owned. Never had them so custom for me before - and now I’ll never go back!

My experience was awesome through the whole process! Found the pair I loved, was able to try them on online (SUPER COOL FEATURE) and my order was confirmed immediately. They sent me tracking info, and confirmed when they were delivered to my mailbox! They arrived professionally wrapped, with a kind handwritten note (one of my fav things in life) and my cool new glasses that I will be sporting this weekend at 2 different festivals!! Viva AZYR_specs!! Thank you for offering the coolest of cool eyewear!

I was blessed to have had these glasses fall onto my face right when I needed them. They fit perfectly and my eyes are so happy behind them. I hope to buy another pair of AZYR glasses soon. Sincerely Catherine

These are so sick! they remind me of my fav Macbeth Tom Delonge frames from 15+ years ago - the pink is so light it doesnt too girly. I have shoulder length hair and the red/brown pop love the shape and def will be getting some more soon

They arrived safe! The package got routed weirdly through USPS (NYC>AZ>Ohio>Georgia>San Diego) so the box was banged up, but the glasses were totally fine! Everything was as pictured, fit me and look great! Thank you so much to Maureen and her team for getting me something I've dreamed of for years :)

Trinity | 1997 Matrix Sunglasses

The sunglasses seem completely unused, they are NOS! Lovely communication, quick delivery, well packed. Anytime again! Thank you!

"Trinity" 1990s Matrix Sunglasses

Awesome glasses, titanium frame is super light and sturdy, the design is very unique and cool without being too outlandish. They also came with a really cool triangular prism folding carrying case.

"Transmission" 1990s Blinde Sunglasses

Very happy with the glasses- sweet people packed my order with a handwritten note. Haven't worn them out much but they fit and they're comfortable, they actually look right, not tacky. Fits my smallerish face without looking too big. Thanks!

"Trinity" 1990s Matrix Sunglasses

The Matrix glasses are incredible and fit perfectly. The virtual try on feature is a game changer and helped me make the right choice based on my face shape without any guesswork. The personal touch throughout the whole experience was great, I highly highly recommend!
