MIC – Hygge Style Inspired By Nature

MIC pays tribute to the beauty of Nature and the Dolomite mountains, where the brand’s eyewear is created, by expressing a style that embraces the soft shades like an authentic mood of life. Nature is the true source of inspiration that determines the lines and color choices, as always, embellished with a distinctive metal detail on the hinge profile that calls to mind the majestic mountain tops. Named for a small village with 450 inhabitants, at 985 meters above sea level, among ancient houses and cobblestone streets.

Cibiana is its perfect embodiment. Generously sized, the frame’s slightly elongated shape, in a combination of acetate and metal, rises to form a warm, inviting angle, along with a color scheme that blends a palette of greens, browns, and blacks to create a marbled effect with a hint of understory.

And what about Auronzo, another Cadore village? It is an example of a sophisticated, functional design, engineered to provide comfort and protection in mountain settings but also perfectly stylish for city wear. The frames are made of polished metal, in a classic round shape reminiscent of the aesthetic of antique mountaineering eyewear. The combination of materials and vintage-modern design makes these frames an accessory that communicates excitement and adventure.

The Vodo optical style – also named for a local village between the Dolomite massifs of Pelmo and Antelao (less than a two-hour drive from Venice) – draws from the floral palettes of soft violets and browns, that intersect here for a harmonious color rendering in acetate with decorative detailing on the front.

About MIC

Made in Cadore – was born at the behest of Tiziano Tabacchi, an eyewear designer born and raised in Cadore. After collaborating for years with the biggest names in the eyewear industry and garnering international success and recognition, he decided to turn his creativity to the land that has inspired and accompanied him in all his creations, managing to combine tradition and imagination.

MIC is therefore not only a brand but also an ambitious project that aims to retrace those now-forgotten paths to rediscover the purity of origin. The mastery and wisdom of the ancient tradition in eyewear blend with the love for those places, giving life and energy to a long and ever-new creative process. The pale, lunar-colored Dolomites, forests with an intense resin scent, and trees with strong bark are the sole inspiration of MIC models in whose details you can see the outlines of the mountains and colors drawn from the palette of those places. Few things but simple, where simplicity is the real value to be sought and defended. Simplicity and emotion. Born in Cadore, made in Cadore-simply MIC.
