Why am I here? Why a city like name for a brand of glasses? Sometimes, in life, decisions are made instinctively. Over time, it is realized that these decisions were also rationally correct. This is also what happened with the name of the municipality. At first, we just wanted to express where we came from, tell people where our house is. Today we understand that, intuitively, we wanted to say much more with this name. Munich and our Munich brand actually have a lot in common. Munich is a safe, cosmopolitan and multicultural city. Everyone who lives in Munich knows how to enjoy life without losing sight of other important things. Munich is relaxed, authentic, stylish and creative, but not desperately extravagant. Just like the Munich glasses.
For men, « frame your personality » is more than just words. It represents the norm in innovative design, high quality materials and harmonious shapes. The result is both modern and timeless goggles that highlight your personality, without eclipse.
Munich glasses offer their wearers a slightly different way of seeing things – the Munich perspective. A little more relaxed, never stressed and especially never too extravagant, while being of a unique style and great beauty.
Behind each brand, there are always people with ideas and passion. Some brands place these people in the spotlight. Like dazzling stars and image polishers. The lights on the ramp have never been very attractive to us. We just want our work and our glasses to get the attention they deserve. From the beginning, we preferred to work in the shadows. Marcus Riess, the son of a highly respected Munich optician, with his innate passion for glasses and their perfect design. With his experience, he clearly understands what separates a good pair of glasses from a perfect pair of glasses. Ari Riess is the passionate organizer, the entrepreneur and the guarantee of a unique service and, despite the size of the company, personalized.
