Summary

  • District Vision and South Korean avant-garde label POST ARCHIVE FACTION (PAF) have teamed up once again, this time debuting their first shared iteration of the Koharu Eclipse sunglasses
  • Crafted in Japan, the Koharu Eclipse S3 features a specialized six-base blade-style frame designed to protect the eyes and maximize the field of vision for runners and cyclists

The latest collaboration between California’s District Vision and Seoul’s POST ARCHIVE FACTION (PAF) delivers an impressive new eyewear line. Building on their successful partnership, the brands have created the Koharu Eclipse S3, which combines high-fashion design with top-level athletic performance. These glasses are built to withstand intense activity while still looking stylish.

The Koharu Eclipse S3 sunglasses are carefully made in Japan and feature unique lens shaping created just for this design. They have a sporty, six-base frame that wraps around your face, protecting your eyes from wind and glare while giving you a wider view. Designed for runners and cyclists, these glasses stay put thanks to temples reinforced with titanium, a comfortable rubber nose pad you can adjust, and a secure fit.

This collaboration focuses on providing exceptionally clear vision using District Vision’s specialized D+ lens technology. These lenses are carefully shaped to improve contrast and keep your eyes comfortable, even when light conditions change. The initial collection features three color options inspired by nature: “Deep Sea” with brown gradient lenses, “Lichen” with sports gray lenses, and “Sand” with black rose gradient lenses. Photographer Steven John Miner captured the collection’s energy with a dynamic, visually striking campaign.

The Koharu Eclipse S3 sunglasses are designed for everything from intense outdoor activities like hiking and cycling to everyday wear. They’ll be available online at District Vision and PAF starting May 9, 2026, at 11 a.m. KST, and will be available at select retailers worldwide beginning May 16. They are priced at $370 USD.
