Dwyane Wade is one of the few NBA players who actually takes this fashion stuff seriously. The Miami Heat star has previously collaborated with luxury watchmaker Hublot, the new official-sock-brand-of-the-NBA Stance, and now he is gearing up for his sixth collection with The Tie Bar, WWD reports.
The new Summer 2015 collection has a wide assortment of ties, bow ties, and pocket squares and is divided up into three different capsules. Each capsule celebrates summer in some way starting with the Hamptons section, which is a nautical-inspired collection in light hues of blue and pink. Other capsules include the Midwest Stars and Stripes, a category inspired by Fourth of July in Chicago that has a black and silver color palette, and Southwest Sensibility, which features Native American-themed patterns.
Wade was inspired by his own personal experience vacationing in different spots across the U.S., he tells Esquire. The three-time-champ also reveals that he'd like to start a clothing line once he retires from the NBA. "Eventually the Holy Grail is to have my own line," Wade tells Esquire. "It's just about doing it at the right time and with the right people."
Wade is off to a good start if he plans on launching his own line. As Wade's former teammate LeBron James would say, Wade now has not one, not two, not three, not four, not five, but six collections with the Tie Bar. You'll be able to purchase this latest collab at The Tie Bar's online store on May 26.
