These jackets represent two sides of McQueen's racing passion—his powerful production company and his iconic on-screen persona, "Michael Delaney."
Featured Lots: The Jackets of Le Mans
Solar Productions | Original Crew Jacket (Circa 1970):
This is more than just a jacket; it's a piece of McQueen's history! Issued by his own production company, Solar Productions, the driving force behind classics like Bullitt, The Getaway, and The Sand Pebbles. This rare crew jacket, complete with an internal "Bowlers" tag, speaks to the dedication and ambition that McQueen brought to every project, especially his passion project, "Le Mans."
Steve McQueen | "Le Mans" Gulf Oil Jacket:
A jacket with an incredible provenance. This original blue, Glenoit brand jacket is a spectacular example of the style worn by Steve McQueen as the fictional driver "Michael Delaney" in the film. It features authentic Gulf Oil Team Sweden patches and has a direct connection to the King of Cool himself, having been a personal gift from McQueen to his makeup artist and friend, Wes Dawn, in the mid-1970s. It was later gifted to motorsports writer Kerry Morse, continuing its legendary journey.
Don't miss the chance to own a piece of Steve McQueen's unparalleled legacy in film and motor racing.
