Kio Yamato: KP-269U

The KP-269U, known as Racer II, represents the evolution of KIO YAMATO’s design language — where strength and refinement intersect. The frame reimagines the classic aviator form through bold acetate contours and a distinctive bridge architecture that exudes structure while maintaining a sense of lightness. Equipped with KIO YAMATO’s signature Dune hinge, part of the Beta Titanium J-Hinge Series, the frame delivers exceptional flexibility and long-lasting comfort. The hinge’s engineered elasticity ensures a balanced, adaptive fit that moves naturally with the wearer, reflecting the harmony of Japanese craftsmanship and modern engineering.
