SCHOTT NYC
Starting in 1913 Irving and Jack Schott made a name for themselves with some of the best leather jackets on the market. By the 1920s the duo revolutionised outerwear by becoming the first people to put a zipper on a jacket. In doing so they managed to create the first ever leather motorcycle jacket. As the world was dragged into its second World War, the Schott brand was commissioned as the official supplier of bomber jackets for airmen and thick wool peacoats for the American men at sea. They went on to produce jackets and coats for the armed forces for the next 60 years.
Schott went onto dominating rock ‘n’ roll and the beginnings of pop culture. Famous actors such as Marlon Brando and James Dean wore their famous Schott Perfecto leather jacket, ultimately making the piece of clothing synonymous with sub-culture groups around America. This carried on through to the 80s when bands like The Sex Pistols and The Ramones donned the Schott leather jackets.
