OUR STORY
DISRUPTING THE MARKET
At ENIGMA, we couldn’t accept the notion that a few pieces of stamped metal and plastic, hastily assembled, should cost hundreds of dollars. The eyewear industry, with its inflated prices and steep markups, had long relied on brand names to justify a lack of substance. We knew there had to be a better way. Armed with nothing more than a vision and the resolve to disrupt this status quo, we set out to revolutionize the sunglasses market, ensuring that luxury need not come with an exorbitant price tag.
A VISION REALIZED
We said goodbye to cheap materials and mass production. Gone are the days of flimsy, mass-produced plastic frames. In their place, we use hand-polished cellulose acetate, sourced from the finest artisans in Italy. Our partnership with Mazzucchelli1849, a family-owned company with over three centuries of expertise, ensures that every ENIGMA frame is crafted from the highest quality acetate in the world. This material, once reserved for frames costing thousands, now becomes accessible—bringing a new level of artistry and craftsmanship to eyewear at an honest price.
The difference in an ENIGMA lens is clear—literally. While competitors offer basic plastic lenses with minimal UV protection, we raised the bar by partnering with Carl Zeiss, the undisputed leader in optical clarity. Known for their unparalleled work with space telescopes and cutting-edge film cameras, Zeiss lenses offer precision and protection like no other. Every ENIGMA pair is fitted with lenses that provide exceptional clarity and 100% UV A & B protection, delivering an experience that exceeds even the highest standards in eyewear.
REDEFINED LUXURY WITHOUT COMPROMISE
At ENIGMA, we are committed to the art of eyewear. Each pair of sunglasses is not just a product but a testament to quality, patience, and unparalleled craftsmanship. We don’t mass-produce sunglasses in minutes; every pair is handmade, each temple hand-polished, and every detail meticulously attended to. In just four years, our commitment to excellence has taken us global, with over 50,000 pairs of sunglasses sold across 76 countries. Thousands of five-star reviews from customers around the world speak to the impact we’ve made. The result is more than just a pair of sunglasses—it’s an experience.
We set out with a singular mission: to combine the finest materials with masterful craftsmanship, and to offer eyewear that balances luxury with fairness. Today, that mission continues to define us, as we deliver world-class sunglasses to every corner of the globe.
