This is the kind of jacket people wore when standing up, speaking out, and living free wasn’t just a vibe—it was a movement. Dark brown suede, dripping in fringe, striding through the 1970s like a desert outlaw with a protest sign in one hand and a guitar in the other. A true relic of American counterculture—this jacket rode shotgun with anti-war demonstrators, stood in solidarity with Native rights, and danced to folk ballads under open Western skies.

From Billy Jack to Buffalo Springfield, fringe wasn’t just fashion—it was a statement. This original 1970s suede fringe jacket features red, white, and blue beadwork across the back, signaling unity and resistance in equal measure. The broken-in leather tells its own story, softened by time and road miles.

Fully lined and cut to move, it’s a piece of wearable history—made for those who know that freedom isn't quiet and that style should never conform.

Fringe jackets like this one became an emblem of resistance in the late ’60s and ’70s—a visible tribute to Native American traditions, worn in defiance of the war machine and in celebration of wildness, freedom, and truth. Artists like Neil Young, Joan Baez, and Dennis Hopper wore them loud and proud. So did thousands of anonymous youth who believed a better world was possible.

This one still carries that energy—raw, honest, and ready to ride.

Whether you're wearing it in Malibu, Topanga, or just in your own moment of rebellion—this jacket makes a statement. Own it while you can. One-of-a-kind and never coming back.
