      MARKUS T is a world-famous German eyewear brand that has quickly become known for its unique, avant-garde designs adored by celebrities such as Lady Gaga, Elton John, Will Smith and countless other stars. Founded in 1998 by Markus Temming, who had the vision of optimized eyewear and wished glasses to be lighter, simpler, and more intelligent, the brand works with precision – at every level. Handcrafted in Germany by master artisans, each pair of glasses is distinguished by the strictest attention to detail and unique aesthetic. The MARKUS T frames are often asymmetric in design, featuring unexpected details such as artistic cutouts, bold lines, and intricate curves that make them highly distinctive.

      MARKUS T also places an emphasis on the use of unique and highly functional materials: TMi and titanium. Exclusively developed and patented for the brand, the TMi is a synthetic plastic material that unites two different properties: it is strong enough to retain its shape while being extremely light at the same time. Also, the material is resistant to sunlight, it’s recyclable and has anti-allergenic properties just like titanium. The manufacturer utilizes the highest-quality alloy that is also used in the medical industry. It allows the creation of ultra-flat and narrow eyepieces, which are super durable and almost unbreakable due to their unique spring properties and the resultant high flexibility.

      ABOUT

      Known as the "Masters of Titanium," MARKUS T continuously pushes the status quo in the field with cutting-edge technologies developed at its own headquarters in Isselhorst near Gütersloh, Germany. The brand owes more than 50 design awards to this constant pursuit of eyewear modernization and progress. For example, the MARKUS T DESIGN/D3 collection, first launched in 2015, got the prestigious Red Dot Award in the product design category, the IF gold award and the renowned German Design Award all in the very same year. In 2020, the jury awarded a Red Dot to MARKUS T for its unique, rimless collection EASE. Made from a very slim titanium, combined with a highly precise glazing technology and a delicate, screwless hinge system, the frames are absolute lightweights, starting at only 3.6 grams.

      The MARKUS T glazing technology is as unique as the brand’s materials or hinges: the glasses are glazed without much tension over the center, which gives the lenses inside the frame greater durability and flexibility. In the ME-collection, the lenses are sealed over the nose bridge. For the titanium glasses, the manufacturer dispenses with screws, which allow little tolerance, and uses Nylon fibers instead. When it comes to color, MARKUS T is sure that it’s a crucial element, since it underlines the individuality of the wearer and emphasizes the design of the frame. To create glasses with a natural, matte appearance, the brand utilizes the patented Multiple-Step-Coloring (MSC) dye process.

      HISTORY

      The namesake MARKUS T eyewear brand was founded by designer Markus Temming in 1998 in Münster, Germany. Temming, who had worked as a goldsmith, was fascinated with eyewear design, which he saw as an exciting new canvas for his creativity. Today, MARKUS T eyewear is known for its handcrafted luxury designs that combine innovative shapes with the highest quality materials. From the beginning, the brand distinguished itself from others with its use of exclusive materials. It was the first to experiment with titanium, which has unique properties and functionalities. Today, MARKUS T remains one of the few brands that combine luxury, innovation, and handcrafted attention to detail, making it a go-to choice for many when searching for an eyewear option that will make them stand out from the crowd.

      The brand's innovative and daring approach to design quickly gained it a following among fashion-forward customers, but it wasn’t until 2007 that MARKUS T really gained popularity. That year, Lady Gaga became a loyal fan of the brand and began incorporating MARKUS T eyewear into her style, helping to attract international attention to the brand. Over the years, the brand has continued to innovate, developing new production techniques and collaborating with other designers and brands to create unique eyewear lines. MARKUS T continues to push the boundaries of eyewear design and create some of the most exclusive and unique sunglasses and optical frames in the world.
