The Akila Cascade 2442 96 28 is a masterclass in contrasting aesthetics, blending a heritage-inspired Brown Havana Acetate square frame with contemporary Solid blue lense technology. This unexpected color combination is a hallmark of Akila’s “New Classic” design philosophy, making it a highly sought-after piece for the stylistic elite in Mumbai. Whether you are exploring the vintage charm of Colaba or lounging at a trendy rooftop bar in Bandra, the Cascade offers a look that feels both grounded in tradition and sharply futuristic.
The frame is handcrafted from Akila’s signature eco-friendly bio-acetate, which features a rich, multi-tonal Havana pattern. The warm ambers and deep browns of the acetate provide a classic, academic feel, while the 49mm lens size offers a “Medium” fit that is incredibly versatile. What truly sets this model apart is the wide 24mm saddle bridge. This prominent bridge design not only adds a unique retro character to the silhouette but also ensures an exceptionally stable fit, which is particularly beneficial for those who find standard bridges too narrow during the humid Mumbai afternoons.
The Solid blue lenses are the soul of the Cascade 2442. Beyond their striking visual appeal, these lenses provide 100% UVA/UVB protection and are “Optical Class 1,” ensuring high clarity without distortion. The blue tint is excellent for reducing glare while maintaining a high level of contrast, making them perfect for navigating the bright city streets or a drive down the Sea Link. Combined with robust 145mm temples and 5-barrel hinges, this frame is built to be a daily driver that doesn’t sacrifice an ounce of style. When you choose the Akila Cascade, you are investing in a handcrafted accessory that balances sustainable craftsmanship with a bold, Los Angeles-born aesthetic.
