GENTLEMONSTER RELEASED TEKKEN INSPIRED GLASSES WITH AI

On September 28th, the South Korean eyewear brand Gentle Monster announced a new pair of glasses inspired by the iconic Tekken character, Devil Kazuya.

Drawing inspiration from Devil Kazuya’s horns, the Gentle Monster x Tekken 8 "Inferno" design features silver goggles encased in a glove-like enclosure, reminiscent of Kazuya's signature red gloves. Horn-like details emphasize the structural frames, while the lenses boast a red, mirrored finish.

This collaboration with the legendary Tekken franchise, first released in arcades in 1994 and later on PlayStation the following year, marks the brand’s third successful partnership of the year. Earlier this summer, Gentle Monster collaborated with Mugler, Jenne, and Maison Margiela.

The "Inferno" glasses were released on Gentle Monster’s official website on September 27th, retailing for $500, as announced on the brand's Instagram. As of now, just two days later, all pairs have already sold out.

To celebrate the collaboration, Gentle Monster also launched a unique AI filter that transforms users into a Tekken 8 character. The filter is available on the brand’s official website.
