MOSCOT, the New York City heritage eyewear brand, unveils five new timeless designs to add to their extensive collection. In a throwback to late 60’s through early 80’s sports culture, MOSCOT Pick-Up brings the exciting new Fall 2023 Collection to the court. Through stylized portraiture, cinemographs, and dramatized action shots, this bold new collection of reimagined frames recalls the golden era of sports fashion.
“We went BIG and BOLD for Fall 2023. Inspired by the inimitable fashion of the characters of the Lower East Side, the five new frames were designed to take up as much space as the legends who rock them.” – Zack Moscot, 5th Generation & Chief Design Officer

ABOUT MOSCOT
The MOSCOT optical roots were first planted in America by Great Great Grandfather and family patriarch, Hyman Moscot, who arrived from Eastern Europe via Ellis Island in 1899. Hyman began selling ready-made eyeglasses from a pushcart on Orchard Street on Manhattan’s famed Lower East Side. Now, over a century later MOSCOT is a New York City institution, renowned worldwide for its iconic eyewear.
MOSCOT infuses its unmistakably refined, downtown aesthetic with over 100 years of eyewear expertise and unparalleled craftsmanship to create its timeless eyewear. While now recognized as a global fashion brand, MOSCOT remains, at heart, a neighborhood optical Shop.
