Australia, September 2026:
Carrera Eyewear, part of Safilo Group – a global leader in the design, production and distribution of premium eyewear – proudly announces the launch of the third Pat Cummins Signature Collection, a bold new offering in its collaboration with Australian Test Cricket Captain Pat Cummins. Building on the success of the first and second releases, the 2026 Selection captures Carrera’s fearless attitude and Pat’s trademark discipline, confidence and modern Australian style. Together, they have created an exceptional range that blends performance, style and substance — designed for those who live with the state of mind and allure of a competitive soul who dare to make a difference.
A Collection that Balances Performance and Design
Co-created with Carrera’s design team in Padua, Italy, the 2026 Pat Cummins Selection introduces seven new models – including both sport-driven and lifestyle designs – that combine Carrera’s signature craftsmanship with technical innovation. Each piece carries Pat’s gold-foil signature and an internal “PAT CUMMINS SELECTION” marking, affirming its exclusivity.
Shared Vision of Excellence
Pat shares “Our third Selection balances performance on the field and style off it. The C-SPORT frames and their High Contrast Lenses are built to perform under pressure, while the lifestyle designs reflect the sophistication and detail I look for every day. Carrera and I share that same pursuit of excellence.”
Vladimiro Baldin, Safilo Chief Brand & Product Officer, said: “Pat’s integrity, leadership and precision mirror Carrera’s DNA. This new collection continues our shared journey – uniting Italian craftsmanship with athletic spirit to create eyewear that performs at the highest level and looks exceptional everywhere.”
