NBA Hall of Famer Dwyane Wade is once again collaborating with Versace by modeling sunglasses and prescription eyewear from the iconic Italian brand’s latest men’s collection.

Wade—a three-time NBA Champion, Olympic Gold medalist, and 13-time NBA All-Star best known for his stints with the Miami Heat—was tapped as the face of Versace men’s eyewear in 2023.

The hoops legend has since become a best-selling author, entrepreneur and brand builder who’s well-known for placing a premium on personal style.

Wayne wore Versace to his recent enshrinement ceremony into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame and is a regular at Versace fashion shows, so it comes as no surprise that he’s promoting another cool collab with the flashy fashion house.

“I’m proud to be part of the Versace family, and I’m excited to launch my second eyewear collection with a campaign that’s personal and meaningful,” Wade said in a statement announcing the new line. “Completing your look is all about the details and the new collection reinforces the importance of eyewear as an outfit’s finishing touch.”
