In Jet Black, the Ayrton is at its most commanding — the deep, glossy black acetate finished with kazari metal ornaments on the arms that catch the light as you move. This is the colorway that most directly channels its racing namesake: unapologetic, impossible to ignore.

The Ayrton is named after the legendary Brazilian racing driver Ayrton Senna. Bold and beautifully curved, this frame makes a statement — just as Senna did, on and off the track. Cut from a single sheet of premium Japanese acetate sourced from Takiron Rowland, each frame is handcrafted in Sabae, Japan by Takumi master craftsmen with over 30 years of experience. Over 200 manual processes across six weeks produce a frame of exceptional quality. Ships to the United States. Free returns.
