T Henri

Editors choice, our personal favorite:

In search of an eyewear brand that parallels an elite lifestyle while paying tribute to the world’s most innovative and exclusive machines, Tyler Henri was driven to create a purist, exotic lifestyle brand. A brand which flows harmoniously with the vanity fair of indulging in hypercars, superyachts, and jumbo jets. Out of that innovation, T HENRI was born, a new ultra-chic brand offering the world’s most luxurious and meticulously-crafted eyepieces.

Sculpted for beauty, timelessness, extensive detail and performance, his Monaco Series collection is the ultimate driver’s spectacle.

Woodys is the same as spectacularity. This brand promises fun, color, freshness, sophistication and a point of excendricity wherever it goes. This year, in MIDO, you will have the opportunity to see the new models that the company has been presented this past January. More mature designs, with more sinuous and daring shapes inspired by the eighties.

Acetate continues to be very present with milled designs to create an oversized effect that gives off glamor on all 4 sides. Woodys bets, again, for its Unique Men men’s collection, incorporating beta-titanium as the main element for its lightness, comfort, resistance and ergonomics. Materials that will undoubtedly be a star this 2020.
