New York City-based eyewear purveyor MOSCOT has teamed up with Canadian menswear brand wings+horns in a collaboration unlike any other it has done before. What makes it so unique? Not only is it the first time the 102-year-old brand has lent its namesake to apparel, but it is also the first time producing its coveted MILTZEN frame in a folding version.

“Wings+horns is known for its enduring and much envied ability to straddle the worlds of streetwear and high-fashion with ease,” says chief design officer Zack Moscot. “It was exciting and a no-brainer to join forces with another renowned brand that has a shared mindset and appreciation for meticulously crafted gear.” The MOSCOT x wings+horns’ capsule collection features exclusive pieces that encompass the best of both brands. Combining MOSCOT’s eyewear expertise with wings+horns’ unique, detail-oriented approach to clothing design, the duo created a one-of-a-kind collection that includes three select pieces. The first is a foldable version of MOSCOT’s coveted MILTZEN cutting-edge shiny black sunglass with G15 glass lenses, sleek black rivets and blacked out hardware. In addition, the limited edition drop includes a fully reversible bomber jacket produced in an understated Japanese fabric. Designed for movement, the jacket also includes articulated sleeves and a removable pocket case for the folded MILTZEN frame. Perfect for on the go, the tee includes a pocket lined with MOSCOT’s chamois cloth material purposed to help keep the frames safe. Whether worn separately or together as an ensemble, each piece in the limited edition collection complements and highlights one another perfectly.

“When you strip back all the marketing hype, the core of every good collaboration should be the product,” says Moscot. “We know that we accomplished just that with this partnership that exudes a utilitarian aesthetic that’s rooted in not only functionality, but style and design.” All of the items can be purchased at MOSCOT shops, moscot.com, wingsandhorns.com and select boutiques around the globe.
