Moscot

5 generations & 103 years of eyewear excellence

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.

Today, the company boasts retail locations the world over, celebrity endorsements, and classic styles that harken back to their original looks.
