RACE

The straight, robust brow line lends a strong personality to this Race frame. It adjusts harmoniously to the contours of the face, while the temples appear to have been meticulously chiselled with a subtle play of bevels. Meticulous polishing brings out all the rich nuances and curves of the acetate.

The Race frame pays tribute to Steve McQueen’s all-consuming passion for racing. “Racing is life. Everything else is waiting,” he said. His constant quest for adrenalin and his unbridled need for speed were the real driving forces behind his existence.
