Family-run MOSCOT is in its fifth generation. Starting as Hyman Moscot's single pushcart in 1899 it's become a worldwide symbol of New York sophistication and its ever-changing downtown community. Designed and prototyped in New York City, all MOSCOT eyewear is handmade, using the highest quality materials, real hardware, and hinges that are riveted through the temple and frame fronts to ensure the sturdiest construction possible.
