The PDW OR66 Jacket in premium, front quarter panel horsehide. Handmade in San Francisco, California USA. This is our take on the "Half Belt" style leather jacket, an American style icon since the 1930s and worn worldwide. The 1930s was the "Golden Age of Aviation", the end of Prohibition, the era of Streamline Moderne design, the Great Depression, Big Band and Jazz, the Yankees ruled baseball, and the beginning of WWII. It was a time when things were made and built to last. There was value and common sense in well made, durable consumer products and goods. It was during this decade the "Half Belt" style leather jacket was born. The OR66 is one of our made in USA CORE-Line products, and of heirloom quality. Available in classic black.

To create the O.R.66 Jacket, we started with three authentic period examples of this style jacket from the 1930s, 40s and 50s. From these vintage examples our master pattern and final jacket was created.

We used the finest, select, front quarter panel horse hides to create this jacket. A very special weight and tanning method were chosen to produce a jacket equally at home around town, on a motorcycle, or in a cockpit. Unlike the very stiff and unforgiving 4 oz hides, we chose a 3.25 oz which is more supple and comfortable for a 3+ season range, and won't be weigh you down for everyday wear. Our select horse hides are superior in tensile strength, abrasion resistance, and durability to any cow and steer hides in heavier weight classes. The O.R.66 will break in with use and display its characteristics as unique as the individual who wears it.

Without changing the defining design characteristics and silhouette, we updated this timeless style with a few subtle functional updates. Period USN G1 style wind flap and gusseted bi-swing back were added for those of us who ride, there are 2 leather lined interior Napoleon pockets taken from custom leather jackets made for Federal Agents that can withstand holding backup pieces, and a zippered "hide-away" pocket in the back of the collar for a spare cuff key to bug out cash.

Buy once, cry once, smile for a lifetime. The OR66 is warrantied against manufacturer's defect for the life of the original owner.

"The OR66 pays homage to vintage biker jackets with a level of craftsmanship that’s exquisite. The horsehide exterior is soft to the touch, as is the nylon sateen-lined, cotton twill interior. The hidden zipper pocket in the back of the collar and snap-button interior pockets make for a stylish way of concealing your goods. If you’re looking for a CCW jacket that’s warm enough to withstand a tough winter, but light enough that you won’t feel like you’re hauling a 5-year-old on your back, you may want to take a look at this gem. Or if you just want a cool motorcycle jacket that’ll make you feel like James Dean, look no further."
