Jared Leto: actor, singer, songwriter, director\u00a0and now Carrera eyewear model.

Is there anything he can’t do?!<\/p>\n

Established in 1956, Italian brand Carrera have become one of the most recognised names when it comes to sporty and stylish eyewear and have gained a legendary reputation as a celebrity favourite.<\/p>\n

The brand have launched the Maverick collection for Spring\/Summer 2016 as part of their 60th birthday celebrations.<\/p>\n

According to Carrera, the Maverick Collection is for #OutThere Characters. In their own words,\u00a0“People who are fearless enough to go their own way. Brave enough to make it happen. Some say they are geniuses.\u00a0We call them The Mavericks.”<\/p>\n

The collection focuses on classic styles with a unique and unconventional twist,\u00a0so it’s no surprise that they chose Jared Leto to front their campaign.\u00a0With his easy-going attitude and\u00a0rock ‘n’ roll background, he is the perfect ambassador to represent\u00a0the brand’s cool ethos and bold image.<\/p>\n

And it seems he was just as keen to work with them as they were with him. In a recent statement, Jared said:<\/p>\n

\nI\u2019ve known of Carrera since I was a kid and when I came across the Maverick project I was immediately connected to it as it talks about people that are brave, bold, that take risks, the wild horses, the people that are not afraid to fail, the type of people who have inspired me my whole life.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
