The Heritage of Maybach

Maybach’s legacy is one of triumph, with the brand’s interesting path leading it to where it is today—standing for perfection in all things. Those who purchase Maybach glasses typically keep coming back for more, citing the brand’s rich history, precise crafting, and luxury appeal as all things contributing to its popularity. 

Brand Origins  

With roots dating back over a hundred years, Maybach eyewear is well known for its history in the automotive industry. Maybach was founded in Germany by Wilhelm Maybach in 1909, and originally produced engines for planes, rail cars, and more. Over the next decade, they began creating limited-edition high-end luxury cars that became popular for their innovation and extravagance. Eventually, the brand became a part of the Mercedes-Benz group, with Mercedes-Maybach cars still symbols of the ultimate luxury today. 

Maybach began producing eyewear in the early 2010s, putting the same detail, craftsmanship, and creativity into their pieces that made them successful in the automotive world. 

Quality & Craftsmanship

Maybach eyewear is all handmade in ateliers in Germany, using precious, rare, and often unexpected materials to create striking designs you won’t find with any other brand. In order to create these designs, they rely on traditional frame-building techniques perfected over decades along with cutting-edge technology, creating the ideal system for superb results. Their process is intricate, detailed and one that’s all their own. 

Luxury Appeal 

Known for the ultimate luxury appeal, Maybach glasses are often viewed as an investment, as are many designer pairs. Their quality makes them ultra-wearable, ultra-durable—and ultra-fun. Their designs stand out from the crowd, helping you make a style statement all while enjoying comfort, convenience, and durability—all qualities that make these glasses worth every penny. Only a limited number of Maybach glasses are released by style, only making them more sought after. They’re also big with fans of the old money look, especially noticeable in Maybach sunglasses and recently growing in popularity as well. 

What Makes Maybach Sunglasses Unique?

Materials & Finishes

When we say Maybach glasses are made of some truly unique materials, we mean it. On Maybach eyewear, you can often find precious metals, wood accents, buffalo horn, fine leather, Italian acetate, and so much more, often taking weeks to fully craft to perfection. While Maybach eyewear is not usually known for one specific style, popular instead for its widespread versatility and appeal, they do have a variety of rimless, minimal, and classic frames beloved across the globe. 

Unique Design Elements

With intricate engravings, specialized hinges, unique logo placement, and through a seamless blending of materials, Maybach creates an eyewear experience unlike any other. They’re immediately recognizable, using Zeiss lenses for next-level clarity and even having models featuring diamonds and precious stones for the ultimate opulence. While they blend a variety of unique elements together, they remain lightweight, something many fans praise. 

Automotive Appeal

In addition, Maybach has never forgotten its roots, continuing to incorporate automotive-inspired themes and aesthetics into its designs, creating a cool retro-modern feel. This includes the notorious double-M logo, seen both on Maybach’s glasses and Mercedes-Maybach cars, harkening back to their expertise and reputation in the car business. Their floating lens designs, a Maybach eyewear signature in which the lenses look like they’re floating within the frame, are also inspired by luxury cars, paying homage to elements such as the car’s grill and overall style.
