This spectacle specialty shop is well-known for their Shitsuji Megane (Butler Glasses) shop located in Ikebukoro where their staff are all decked on in butler outfits. More recently, they set up shop in Akihabara with Animegane–which pretty much explains itself.

Since then, Eyemirror has released numerous anime-inspired eyeglasses with their recent collaboration being with the 90s gunslinger series, Trigun. What makes this all the more special is the direct involvement and personal supervision of series creator Yasuhiro Nightow. He made sure that the featured sunglasses would highlight all the details and characteristics of Vash’s sunglasses. This includes the rippled frame and yellow-tinted lenses which could be replaced with a prescription pair upon request.
No gun, though. This is Japan, after all.
