"THE BIKERIDERS" VINTAGED VANDALS MOTORCYCLE JACKET
Thanks to the success of the original 568, we've schemed up a midweight vintaged version, unique in its own right. The 568VN goes through a vintaging process consisting of stone washing, regular washing, and tumbling. This process creates a result similar to our PER70 and leaves every jacket with its own marks, scuffs, and scars. A figurative "one of one" if you will.
Compared to the 568, this jacket is more rigid and will take longer to break in. Because of it's veg tanning and teacore under-layer, this jacket is full of "squeak" when worn as well. The BLTV belt style made for the 568 also fits the 568VN.
The 568VN is proudly Made In The USA at our factory in Union, New Jersey.
OVERVIEW
The "Vandals" Perfecto jacket is a reinterpretation of the vintage jacket worn in the movie The Bikeriders. The jacket has a back length of 25 inches, which is authentic to the period. We added an iridescent burgundy rainglow lining which is a nod to the red linings of the time. The D-pocket configuration is featured in our first Perfecto motorcycle jacket designed by Irving Schott in 1928.
