For many of us, 1969 was a memorable year. From the rumble of Harleys on the streets of San Francisco to The Miracle Mets winning the World Series, the concerts and protests that defined the Woodstock Generation, and films that captured the national imagination like Butch Cassidy, Midnight Cowboy and Easy Rider... and from this last film came the iconic image of Captain America wearing his leather biker jacket with a full-size American flag on the back. How cool was that?

We all wanted one, so at Vanson we started making them with lots of time-consuming handworkevery stripe, every starwith a red, white and blue stripe set running up the right chest and around the left sleeve. Period details are finished off by the embroidered competition Vanson oval on the left front. The legend lives on...

The Vanson AMERICA JACKET accepts the Vanson Streamliner snap-in vest. For the same handmade jacket, only without the flag on the back, see CAS-AMRD.
