Even today, Schott NYC is a proudly family-run company, led by the direct descendants of its founders. Much of its flagship production is still carried out in its American factories, where leather is cut and sewn according to traditional patterns and methods. The brand’s philosophy rejects the logic of fast consumerism (fast fashion): a Schott jacket is designed to last a lifetime, to gain character as it ages, and to be repaired rather than replaced. The collection perfectly combines extraordinary tradition with the needs of the contemporary wardrobe. The legendary genuine leather jackets and bombers—crafted from premium cowhide or soft lambskin—stand out for their clean lines and structured silhouettes, enhanced by historic details such as quilted stitching or removable fur collars that evoke American aviation.
