Magazine B Issue No. 64 explores Moscot, the independent New York eyewear company renowned for its enduring designs, family heritage and connection to Manhattan’s Lower East Side.
DESCRIPTION
Moscot’s history began in 1915, when Hyman Moscot opened an optical shop on Rivington Street. Over successive generations, the family developed a distinctive collection of frames inspired by archival eyewear and classic designs from different eras.
Recognized for its vintage aesthetic and longstanding commitment to optical craftsmanship, Moscot has become an enduring symbol of New York style. Its frames have been worn by prominent cultural figures, including Andy Warhol, Truman Capote and Johnny Depp.
This issue examines Moscot’s history, family-led business and design philosophy, together with the relationship between functional eyewear, personal style and the evolving character of New York City.
Presented through Magazine B’s distinctive combination of photography, interviews and editorial storytelling, this English-language edition offers an in-depth portrait of one of America’s most recognizable independent eyewear brands.
