An American legend, built to last a lifetime

The Schott 141 NOIR is not just a leather jacket—it’s a piece of motorcycling history. Born in the USA, this café racer-style jacket is crafted from heavyweight naked cowhide leather, a material chosen for its unmatched durability and natural character. Weighing between 3 and 3.5 oz, the leather is thick enough to withstand years of wear while developing a rich patina that tells your story. The chrome-tanned, drum-dyed process ensures deep, even colour that won’t fade, while the full-grain finish preserves the leather’s natural texture and strength. This is a jacket designed to age beautifully, becoming softer and more personal with every ride.

A design rooted in function, refined over decades

Every detail of the 141 NOIR serves a purpose. The straight cut, with adjustable side buckles, allows for a tailored fit without sacrificing mobility, while the bi-swing back panels ensure freedom of movement—essential for riders. The mandarin collar, secured with snap buttons, can be worn up for wind protection or folded down for a sleek look. Three zippered front pockets offer secure storage, and the zippered sleeve cuffs keep the elements out. Underarm grommet vents provide airflow, making this jacket as practical in warmer months as it is in cooler weather. Inside, a zip-out synthetic fur lining adds warmth when needed, but can be removed for a lighter, more breathable feel.

From the road to the street—effortless versatility

While the 141 NOIR was born for the road, its clean, timeless design makes it just as at home in urban settings. The café racer silhouette—slimmer than a classic biker jacket but more structured than a bomber—pairs effortlessly with everything from a flannel shirt and slim jeans to a fitted sweater and tailored trousers. The deep black hue and semi-matte finish give it a understated edge, whether you’re riding through the city or meeting friends for a coffee.

Schott isn’t just a brand—it’s the name behind the world’s first leather motorcycle jacket. Founded in 1928 by brothers Irving and Jack Schott, the company created the iconic Perfecto in 1928, a jacket so ahead of its time that it was banned in some American schools for its rebellious associations. Decades later, Schott remains a benchmark for quality, crafting jackets in the USA with the same attention to detail that made the Perfecto a legend. The 141 NOIR carries that legacy forward: built to last, designed to perform, and steeped in the spirit of the open road.
