The ideal blend of vision and timing, Komono modernises accessories for refined style.
Komono is based in Antwerp, Belgium where its designs are created with an international outlook. Its watches, sunglasses, and opticals offer global fashion at your fingertips. Contemporary and innovative, the brand believes in self-expression and creative freedom. The company appreciates the beauty of diversity, so it cuts out convention to put forward new concepts and experimental propositions.
Modern Collections
Komono collections display distinct, radical visions and render avant-garde accessory designs. Inspirations deriving from its deeply-rooted Antwerp fashion scene are pertinent, yet individual and global inclusions are never lacking.
Eccentric silhouettes, splashes of colours, powerful symbolisms, and creative add-ons are what make Komono’s collections a must-have. An intriguing play of geometric shapes with colours is always present in their accessories.
Inclusivity & Sustainability
Komono is unique because it considers and includes all. The brand is considerate towards the environment and gets creative with its material use to lessen its carbon footprint. Using advanced materials such as plant-based plastics that eventually decompose, reusing leftover materials, upcycling, designing durable products in a timeless manner, and encouraging longevity are a few of the many ways Komono implements its sustainable vision. Its positive impact involves the planet and all its people.
The History of Komono
Komono was founded in Belgium by ex-professional snowboarders, Raf Maes and Anton Janssens in 2009. From its origins, the brand has been rooted in the Belgian tradition of fierce dedication to quality, craft, and timing. It has become a growing community of dreamers and designers that create sleek designs, stimulating colour palettes, and a minimal aesthetic. Komono is a boundary-breaker in the world of accessories and a unique lens on global fashion.
