Steve McQueen may be gone, but he is definitely not forgotten thanks to the Barbour Steve McQueen Collection. Barbour is celebrating its 75th anniversary by designing a capsule collection that pays tribute to the King of Cool’s style.
The Barbour Steve McQueen Collection may be the most American thing I have ever seen. The collection is inspired by clothing that McQueen actually wore and includes a bomber jacket, t-shirts and sweaters, with almost all pieces featuring the American flag somewhere in their design. Check out the full collection here before it hits stores later this year.
