A jacket at Schott's Union, New Jersey, factory.
Schott is a legacy - one that's been manufacturing jackets worn by some of the coolest people of the last century.
The company, which was started in 1913 by Irving Schott on New York City's Lower East Side, invented the motorcycle jacket in 1928, and they've been hand-sewing the jackets in the same way ever since.
Everyone from Marlon Brando and James Dean to the Ramones and Bruce Springsteen have donned Schott's Perfecto jacket, or a slight modification of it. The company also manufactures other apparel, including pea coats, shirts, and shoes for both men and women.
Schott gave us a peek into their factory in Union, New Jersey, to see exactly how they've been able to do it for more than 100 years.
