Steve McQueen® The Car 20 in Gold - Deep Blue

Inspired by the ‘King of Cool’ these aviator-style sunglasses have a distinct, timeless appeal.

Renauld and the Steve McQueen® Estate are proud to announce a collaboration with Le Mans® to produce a limited edition sunglasses known as the Steve McQueen® Le Mans® collection.

Steve McQueen will always be remembered as the 'King of Cool', and throughout the 60s was an enthusiastic collector of sunglasses. The 1970 film, Le Mans® is a cult classic and over the last 54 years has steadily grown in popularity. Using ground-breaking filming techniques, McQueen pushed the boundaries of capturing live race sequences. During the filming, McQueen wore a cherished pair of sunglasses, and we are very proud to have been selected by the Estate to reproduce these for the first time since the film's release in 1970.

The Car 20 Steve McQueen® sunglasses feature an actual part of McQueen’s own Porsche 917 race number 20 encased in the Renauld Marque embedded in the temple of the sunglasses. This precious keepsake is part of the original bodywork from McQueen’s own car.

The Keepsake is also protected by a new interactive NFC element in the sunglasses called a ValueBond®. More information will be made available on the ValueBond® as we approach the launch.

The Car 20 collection is limited to 350 pieces for the season. During privileged meetings with the McQueen family, Renauld was given exclusive access to McQueen’s personal racing memorabilia including the Porsche 911S that was bought by McQueen after completing the film and is an exact replica of the car he used in Le Mans.

Further details will be unveiled as we approach release in August/September 2024. Pre-order now. Delivery September 2024.
