History

Voted San Francisco Magazine's Best of Eyewear! JINS specializes in crafting high-quality eyewear designed in Japan. On a mission to reinvent the eyewear shopping experience, JINS features a unique service bringing glasses to you in 30-minutes, while offering a variety of lens options, including JINS SCREEN that blocks harmful blue light from digital devices. At JINS, we help our customers see the world better, but we'd also like to make the world a better place to see. We've developed a program called Cases for Causes, where we've partnered with local non-profit organizations, and designed eyewear cases with them. When you buy a collaboration case for $5, 100% of the sales will go to the non-profit, so they can do what they do best. We've now expanded globally to about 500 stores in Japan, China, Taiwan, Philippines, Hong Kong and the U.S. JINS' 5 U.S. stores are located in California including in the Bay Area and Los Angeles.

Specialties

We'll be closing this store AUGUST 15TH, 2022. But you can still find us online where your prescription and past orders will be saved in your account. Just head to JINS.COM If you'd still prefer to visit us in-store, head down to our Valley Fair location at Westfield Valley Fair Mall at 2855 Stevens Creek Boulevard in Santa Clara. Thanks again for being such a loyal customer over the past 7 years. See you online!

I usually find eyewear stores to be uncomfortable, especially after Covid hit, but even before that. It's almost comparable to a car dealership. Sometimes I want to just sit in the cars and check...
