JINS is a Japanese eyewear company with 350 retail locations in Asia. They opened their first US store last year in San Francisco. San Jose gets the honor of being their 2nd location in the US. The 2,300 SQFT Valley Fair store features 960 different styles (all designed in Tokyo) and customers can receive their glasses in only 30 minutes. Prices are reasonable, starting at $60 for frames. 15 minute eye exams will be available as well.
This marks yet another instance of San Jose grabbing an international brand that not widely available in the US. Others include Warby Parker, Kit & Ace, Bonobos, Scotch & Soda, Halston, MUJI, David Yurman, Miu Miu, and many more.
JINS will be located on the second floor between Nordstrom and Old Navy.
Of course the store is in San Jose like 90% of Valley Fair but it will be using Santa Clara's address as all of Valley Fair does. This is a Post Office stupidity that San Jose is just too inept to correct. One of my biggest pet peeves
