      说明

      From Inside the Westminster Menswear Archive:

      ROCKER’S JACKET
      Excelled
      1980s
      The decorated leather jacket is synonymous with British ton-up boys and rockers of the 1950s onwards. Adorned with studs, patches and badges, this leather jacket features a hand-painted skull and crossbones below the word Triton, a portmanteau of the motorcycle manufacturers Triumph and Norton. Several of the badges featured the logos of British motorcycle brands including BSA, Ariel, Triumph, Vincent, Norton and Royal Enfield. It features patches from the Fifty Nine Club, founded by the Reverend John Oates at St Mary of Eton church in London’s East End in 1959. The club is still active today, and the iconic ‘59’ patches are only available to registered members who have paid their annual subs.
