Not that I need an excuse to blog about superstar rebel, Steve McQueen... but to celebrate their upcoming 75th anniversary Barbour have re-launched 'the daddy of all motorcycle jackets,' the International (originally created in 1936). McQueen loved racing motorbikes both on and off screen, was a member of the US elite team at the International Six Day Trial in 1964 and wore Barbour. Here's the jacket and some gratuitous shots of the Hollywood legend:

Steve had a great smile and looked good in that jacket!
One is gratefull to see S. McQueen any time.Long live the jacket!!!!
One word. Phwoooooaaar.
Phwooooooaaar indeed. What a bloke. xxx
I thought about buying one of those -or trying to- as it looks so damned cool on Mr McQueen. But then I remembered that a) I have far too many jackets anyway and b) it wouldn't look nearly as good on me.
That smile !- awesome and at his best in The Thomas Crown Affair in my view...(think he wore a polo-neck in that!)
Love, love, love Steve McQueen, whatever he's wearing. Ditto Vix xx
He is beautiful. Good to welcome back the coat. Xxxx
I remember seeing the movie The Great Escape at the theater. It was fabulous and Steve McQueen was a standout.
Still a legend quite Mmmmmm.
Jacket not bad either! x
Mmmmm. Can see those blue blue eyes even though the photos are in black and white!
As if a jacket could turn you into Steve McQueen... But then it's always so good to look at him.
