The collection, in focus.

German made HUG eyewear is the product of three minds; Thomas Hobmaier, Federic Utz, and Jochen Gutbrod, who all shared the same ambition – redefine the meaning of luxury eyewear.

With focus on genuine craftsmanship, the classic & timeless pieces are created through a combination of state-of-the-art manufacturing technology and over 100 steps of manual craft – with each frame paying homage to an influential blues singer. What they delivered was stripped down to the bare essentials, much like HUG itself.
