This new update of Persol’s iconic 714s nod to the actor’s role in Le Mans
It seems natural then that the Italian eyewear aficionados would want imbue the 100th year of racing with some McQueen magic. During this year’s 24 Hours Le Mans race – which rather confusingly, takes place over five days – Persol will present some of the world’s most iconic motor culture films in a dedicated open-air cinema, as well as a McQueen-designed booth in the main race village.
Thankfully, you can nab a pair from their website if you’re not planning on attending, as well as the traditional tortoiseshell design that won the actor over in the first place. See it as a bit of Le Mans for le wardrobe.
