The Kakadu is a wide-format frame with a heavy-gauge build. Defined by its substantial top line and deep rectangular lenses, this silhouette offers a bold, architectural look for those who prefer a frame with significant physical weight and a structured presence.
Hand-finished from bio-based acetate that has been oven-cured for stability, the Kakadu is engineered to maintain its alignment over time. The hardware is equally robust, featuring signature 18k gold-plated hinges and laser-cut screws for a high-strength construction that stands up to daily utility.
- Heavy-Gauge Silhouette: A thick-rimmed rectangular frame designed for maximum visual impact and structural durability.
- Cured Bio-Acetate: Oven-treated to ensure the material stays stable and holds its professional adjustment through years of wear.
- Technical Hardware: Built with signature seven-barrel hinges for a precise, durable build that resists daily wear.
Style Tip: The Kakadu is a commanding frame that works well as a focal point. Its thick, geometric lines provide a great counterpoint to softer features or more relaxed, layered clothing. It’s an ideal choice if you want your eyewear to be the most intentional part of your look.

Frequently asked
I'm looking to get prescription lenses in my frame, how do I do that?
Email us directly at info@friendsinsight.ca with your current prescription so we can best assist.
What kind of prescription lenses do you use?
We use premium prescription Zeiss lenses with all the best coatings - Anti-Reflective, Anti-Scratch, UV, Hydrophobic/Oleophobic coatings (easier to clean). The prescription lenses and frames both come with a 2-year warranty.
Can you tell me more about the brands?
We don’t believe in mass-produced fashion. Instead, we curate a selection of independent eyewear that you won’t find at a big-box store.
We look for designers who share our values: people who prioritize sculptural design, premium materials like Italian acetate and surgical-grade titanium, and an uncompromising commitment to fit.
Whether you're looking for a bold statement or a quiet classic, our collections are chosen for their character, not their brand name.
