SCHOTT Perfecto 519 Waxy Natural Cowhide 50’s Jacket

The jacket was designed by Russian-American garment maker Irving Schott who, along with his brother Jack, owned Schott NYC. Schott NYC was founded in New York City by the brothers in 1913 and is often credited as being the first company to sew zippers onto jackets, but it was the Perfecto that made Schott famous. In many ways, the Schott Perfecto is in a class all on its own. After all, what menswear article of clothing is more classically cool than one made famous by the likes of Marlon Brando or Bruce Springsteen? And, of course, we can’t forget Lou Reed. As with all Perfecto® leather jackets, Schott only uses the best, highest quality leather available. In the same tradition started in the late 1920's, highly skilled workers hand-cut each panel for the 519. Don’t miss this opportunity to own a truly iconic garment, secure it before it’s gone!
