Introduced in the 1960s, the 714 was a folding adaptation of the famous 649, and was perhaps the first-ever collapsible pair of glasses. Designed for comfort and convenience, the 714 was made famous by Steve McQueen who wore them both off screen and on screen, and they are still among the most popular and fashionable sunglasses today.
