A$AP Rocky is celebrating his first year as Ray‑Ban’s creative director by dropping a new all‑metal eyewear collection that introduces his first optical designs for the brand. The nine‑piece line leans into slim wire frames, rimless silhouettes and wraparound shapes, reworking Ray‑Ban’s legacy codes through what the brand describes as a nostalgic‑but‑modern lens.
Narrow rectangles, soft ovals and a single store‑exclusive wraparound style are finished in classic metallic tones, keeping the focus on line and shape rather than heavy logos.
The frames are available as both sunglasses and opticals, with tinted lenses in category‑two and category‑three strengths across different SKUs. Category‑three lenses offer a stronger tint suitable for bright, direct sun, while the milder category‑two options are geared toward everyday wear; all are non‑polarized standard lenses.
Prices sit in the roughly 200‑to‑250‑dollar range, with each pair packaged in a collector case designed to double as a display piece, alongside Ray‑Ban’s standard snap‑shut carry case.
Campaign imagery pairs Rocky with Nas, positioning the drop as a cross‑generational New York story and underlining Ray‑Ban’s push to fuse classic cultural references with a more experimental silhouette. The metal collection follows last year’s heavily tinted “Blacked Out” frames and a futuristic wraparound “Next Generation” capsule, marking another step in Ray‑Ban’s plan to give Rocky visible influence over both product and image.
