@sk8nitrous Correct the picture above is the "cuda", without question. What I thought you meant by "normally" was that it was his most known jacket, when in fact he was filmed most often in the MA-1 which was intended as Air Force issued to pilots and flight crews.
I can't believe Steve McQueen died at 50. A quote from him: "Racing is life. Anything before or after is just waiting". He raced to death. I hope I'll live longer, otherwise I'd only have 9 years left. Damn.
...and James Dean died even younger. Don't let the chronic smoking, fast living, Hollywood stars of yesteryear be your measuring gauge on how long you'll live. Make no mistake, I have total respect for the both of 'em (especially their affinity for racing) but I'm far too grounded to live to their extent.
Lol my Dad has these and claims they are cool..
in fact, they are.
Your dad is one hip dude. Anything McQueen sported is gold. Certified
Supercool!
Legend!
And the jacket is gold too!
Always loved Persol's retro design.
a real icon
All around cool!
I've got it!!
Stuff the sunnies, I love Steve
I'm more impressed by the Harrington jacket. Now, they were really cool. I've got one myself.
Normaly it's a Baracuta jacket

But remember, Steve died of cancer, not by reckless living. Unlike JD his racing had nothing to do with it
