XIT: Where French Elegance Meets Excitement

XIT Eyewear represents the epitome of contemporary French design, with its name serving as a French acronym for “Excited” (Excitée). Founded in 2012 by the visionary duo Lionel Bellet and Nathalie Bourgitteau-Guiard, XIT has quickly established itself as a bold and innovative force in the luxury eyewear industry, creating frames that truly excite the most exclusive and sophisticated customers. The brand is designed by acclaimed French designer Lionel Bellet, an eight-time Silmo d’Or award winner whose expertise and creative vision have shaped XIT into a collection that seamlessly balances colorful acetate, metal, and combination frames. This impressive track record of industry recognition speaks to Bellet’s exceptional ability to create eyewear that pushes boundaries while maintaining the highest standards of quality and design excellence.

Made in Marseille: The Heart of French Craftsmanship

XIT Eyewear is proudly made in Marseille, France, where skilled artisans combine traditional French craftsmanship with contemporary design sensibilities to create frames that are both striking and sophisticated. The choice of Marseille as the production base reflects the brand’s deep connection to French manufacturing traditions and its commitment to supporting local craftsmanship. Each XIT frame represents the perfect marriage of French savoir-faire and modern innovation, with meticulous attention to detail that ensures every pair meets the exacting standards that have made French eyewear renowned worldwide. The Marseille production facility serves as the creative heart of the brand, where Lionel Bellet’s visionary designs are transformed into wearable works of art.
