Its oversized rectangular silhouette features softly rounded corners, a gently curved brow, and substantial proportions that create a strong, balanced profile. The rich dark tortoiseshell acetate adds warmth and depth, with subtle amber highlights visible throughout the frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrame Model:\u003c\/strong\u003e KS702 (Dark Tortoise)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDecade:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1980s\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Japan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLenses: \u003c\/strong\u003eNew forest green lenses\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Excellent vintage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurements:\u003c\/strong\u003e 58-17-140\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHistorical Context\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eKitami is one of many lesser-known Japanese eyewear brands that emerged during Japan's manufacturing boom of the 1980s and 1990s. Produced during an era when Japanese optical craftsmanship had become the global benchmark for precision and durability, Kitami frames were sold primarily through independent opticians rather than major fashion retailers. While little official history of the brand survives today, vintage examples reflect the meticulous construction and understated design philosophy that made Japanese-made eyewear from this period so highly regarded among collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kitami","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53777761206456,"sku":"B626-68","price":175.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0615\/8814\/4312\/files\/IMG_2071.jpg?v=1791308097","url":"https:\/\/azyrspecs.com\/products\/1980s-kitami-sunglasses-archive-0327","provider":"AZYR Specs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
