Here at TAVAT, we believe that for a frame to be truly special, it needs to have a soul. A story. And at DaTE this year, we want to tell you two stories that are particularly close to our hearts.
The first is SoupCan. This collection wasn't born at a design table, but from an almost cinematic image: reckless 1930s stunt pilots, "The Flying Burritos," who looked like they might have built their own goggles from, of all things, soup cans. From that wild idea came a frame that breaks every rule, a tribute to the free spirit. Today, you can find that rebellious soul in the surgical precision of the Milled version, or in the material warmth of our Acetate collection.
And then there's Motus. Here, the story is completely different. It's a tale of precision, of an almost obsessive passion for mechanics. We asked ourselves: how can we create a hinge that not only works perfectly but has character, a reason for being? Looking to gears—ancient and perfect in their function—we created our Double-Gear Hinge. When you test it, you don't just hear a 'click'. You feel the solid, fluid motion of a mechanism built to last, designed to support the power of substantial frames sculpted from 8mm acetate.
Legend and engineering. Adventure and precision. But these are just words, and the real difference is something you have to feel.
That’s why we’re inviting you to DaTE. Stop by our booth, hold a SoupCan, feel the movement of a Motus. We’d love to tell you the rest of the story in person.
