Jacques Marie Mage has unveiled its latest limited-edition eyewear release. The Ayrton Senna by JMM collection captures the charisma, focus, and enduring legacy of one of the greatest Formula 1 drivers in history. With two bold sunglass frames inspired by the exact styles Senna wore during his career, this collection balances vintage energy with master-level craftsmanship. Each frame is produced in limited quantities and handcrafted in Japan using only the finest materials.
Ayrton Senna by JMM: 1991
The 1991 model is a ’90s-inspired acetate aviator that reflects the same bold spirit that led Senna to become the youngest three-time F1 world champion. The frame features JMM’s signature arrowhead end-pieces in precious metal, custom 5-barrel hinges, and elegant temple wirecores engraved with refined hairline detailing.
The four colorways are distinctly curated and available in highly limited numbers:
Mustard:
A mustard-toned acetate with silver hardware. Only 50 pairs produced.
Regal:
Black acetate with silver details. Limited to 350 pieces.
Eclipse 2:

Each 1991 frame is a wearable nod to Senna’s electrifying legacy on the track, reflecting his precision and intensity through form and finish.
Ayrton Senna by JMM: 1992
The 1992 frame is a titanium-based pilot design, showcasing a more technical aesthetic. Constructed from 100% beta titanium, the frame includes a sculptural top bar, acetate lens inserts, sleek temples, and hand-painted epoxy temple tips. Each comes with a custom leather eyewear strap.
Four colorways provide distinctly different interpretations:
Philipmoris:
A silver frame with bright red lens inserts. Only 25 pieces, the rarest in the collection.
