The TROJAN is one of the purest, rarest and most beautiful vintage motorcycle jackets ever. In our view a peak of vintage American motorcycle design. Originally manufactured in postwar Southern California, it is bedrock functional, without frills or add-ons.  This brilliant classic was used by serious riders, frequently post-WWII vets addicted by death and combat to crave danger and challenge. Not a poseur among 'em. For a fascinating, regrettably quick shot of the old Trojan factory in LA, watch carefully the first fifteen minutes of the noir classic THE STREET WITH NO NAME (1948), based on fact and filmed on location: the undercover Fed Mark Stevens leaves his skid row hotel and next to it, believe it or not, is the Trojan shop front! 

 

Consider above the elaborate and complex "Holster" shaped Twin Pocket construction on the left chest -- how  extraordinarily precise and visually striking our workmanship is. The quality and details will astonish you. Made by a single paramount craftsman at our NYC factory, of course. Nothing, at any price, compares. A Jacket of almost unimaginable durability and strength. Yet, when the miles pile up, it softens like butter, articulating the matchlessly beautiful pure Horsehide grain. For those who know, there's Horsehide, then everything else, no matter how good. (But BEWARE: there's true, primo Horsehide -- LOST WORLDS exclusive, peerless Horsehide -- and many other wholly different grades out there. Just because it's Horsehide doesn't mean it's good -- sometimes it doesn't even mean it's Horsehide!!!) Expensive? Only, perhaps, until you see it. Then customers understand how reasonable LOST WORLDS jackets are. Diehards call us "cheap at the price." We're sure you will too.
