Schott NYC (Schott Bros) is an American clothing manufacturing company which was founded in 1913 by brothers Irving and Jack Schott. They opened their store on East Broadway, on the lower East side of New York City. Schott NYC was the first company to put a zipper on a jacket[1][2][3] and they created the classic Perfecto motorcycle jacket, which was made popular by films such as The Wild One (1953). The company made clothing for the United States Armed Forces during World War II and later also for American law enforcement. Schott NYC is still owned by the Schott family and still manufacture much of their clothing in the United States.
