The double rider

The double rider has embodied the essence of ‘cool’ since its initial design. This jacket style became synonymous with counterculture as school systems around the country banned them as bad influences on teenagers after Marlon Brando famously wore one in The Wild Ones. Although the silhouette has changed many times during its eight decades of existence—from vintage to modern, from simple to stylized — the double rider remains the timeless favorite of rebels, outcasts, and other so-called ne’er-do-wells. Featuring the iconic off-center zippered front enclosure, shoulder epaulettes, slash pockets, zippered sleeve cuffs, and cropped body with a cinching waist, this take on the classic double rider jacket is perfect for those with a more rebellious or rakish aesthetic.
