Cubitts — Niwaki
Mirei is our first garden tool. A spectacle frame made to withstand the rigours of the great outdoors.
Designed in collaboration with Niwaki, makers of the finest Japanese pruning tools, to fulfil the wearing requirements of the planter or pruner.
Handmade for handwork
Mirei features a panto lens shape calculated for peripheral vision and eye protection. Cable ‘curl’ temples grip the ear with a reassuring embrace, maintaining a proper distance between frame and flower bed. The frame comes with detachable flip-clip sunglasses, which can be ratcheted up and down in response to the sun’s fickle glow.
Precision lenses
Mirei is fitted with prescription or non-prescription ZEISS ClearView lenses, with DuraVision® coatings to protect against gardening perils. Hydrophobic to repel smudges, anti-static to prevent grime and dust, scratch resistant, and UVA resistant to the top end of the spectrum.
