Story & heritage
Marcolin names XENON as one of the two innovative additions in ic! berlin's 30th-anniversary capsule, standing beside four classic stainless-steel frames. The model is not an archive replay; it is the capsule's forward-looking answer to what the brand can do once its screwless engineering language is pushed into a more minimal, more directional sun shape.
The Optical Journal characterises XENON as a style built on true minimalism and confidence in material quality. That framing fits the product page: the silhouette feels clean and deliberate rather than decorative, which is exactly how ic! berlin tends to modernise.
Materials & craft
Official product details list XENON as an oversize metal sunglass with a 57 mm lens width, 17 mm bridge, 141 mm frame width, and 145 mm temples. The Optical Journal adds the specific construction note that matters most: a rectangular stainless-steel front with flat profiles, elegant temples, acetate tips, and the brand's screwless hinge system.
The same source notes the use of photochromic lenses on the anniversary interpretation, reinforcing that XENON is designed as a technical premium object rather than a purely fashion-led sunglass.
How to choose & style
XENON makes the most sense if you like modern sunglasses that feel architectural but not loud. The rectangular front gives it a crisp, controlled line that plays well with monochrome dressing, sharp outerwear, and anything with a technical bent.
Because the shape already has authority, the bronze and graphite versions feel richer than plain black; they keep the frame readable without making it shout.
