Iconic for decades, these sunglasses continue to define cool. In 1968, Steve Mcqueen donned a pair of Persol 714's for his role in The Thomas Crown Affair, and has been associated with the frames ever since. McQueen was so fond of the 714 model that he continued to wear them in his personal life, in addition to on film. Unlike the current standard Persol 714's, the Steve McQueen limited release frames fold in-to-out instead of up-to-down at the break just after the temple. Each pair features Persol's signature Meflecto technology for comfort, acetate frames, their signature Persol P polarized gradient lenses, and fit snugly inside the included leather case that is exclusive to the Steve McQueen edition 714.
