Steve McQueen

McQueen's off-set photographs from the 1960s, a Baracuta G9 Harrington jacket, chinos, a navy knit, desert boots and Persol sunglasses, are still the template for classic American casual menswear. Photographers such as William Claxton documented that wardrobe, and the specific pieces he wore, including the Persol 714 folding sunglasses, remain sold on the strength of those pictures more than half a century later.
