Selling my Schott NYC 618HH. This is the horsehide version of the legendary Classic Perfecto motorcycle jacket, purchased new in September 2024.
If you know Schott, you know their front-quarter horsehide is on another level. It’s incredibly dense, water-resistant, and develops a beautiful, unique grain as it breaks in—far more pronounced than standard steerhide. It’s a heavy-duty jacket built to last a lifetime.
Condition: Excellent, lightly worn condition. The jacket has been worn just enough to start the break-in process, showing some beautiful, natural creasing in the sleeves and across the back. The horsehide is starting to mold and develop that incredible character, but it still has plenty of breaking in left to do. The leather itself is in great shape with no major flaws, and all hardware (zippers, snaps, buckles) and the quilted lining are fully intact and functional.
Key Features:
• Leather: Genuine heavy-duty front-quarter horsehide
• Hardware: Heavy-duty nickel-plated asymmetrical front zipper, buckles, and snaps
• Back: Bi-swing back panels for extra range of motion
• Belt: Attached half-belt with nickel-plated square buckle
• Lining: Quilted nylon lining for insulation
• Origin: Made in the USA
Measurements (Laid Flat):
• Chest (Pit to Pit): 19.15
• Shoulder to Shoulder: 17 inches
• Sleeve Length (Shoulder Seam to Cuff): 25 inches
• Back Length (Bottom of Collar to Hem): 24 inches

Fit Note: The 618 model is notoriously slim and cropped. While this is tagged a Size 38, it fits very tight. I originally bought this when my chest was 36 inches following the size guide, and it is a very snug, traditional motorcycle fit. Best suited for a true size 36 or a very slim 38.
