Joint Forces With Dana Glaeser, founder of Slightly Alabama

Dana Glaeser Wearing his Moto Vest. A collaboration between Cockpit USA and Slightly Alabama. I first learned of Cockpit USA while in Florence, Italy for the Pitti Uomo men’s show where Cockpit and I were both showing our brands as a party of Liberty Fairs’ Born in the USA section. I met Jacky and Jeff and we quickly became friends. I fell in love with the quality and style of the brand and own several pieces myself. When I opened my store in the summer of 2018, I knew I wanted to carry Cockpit USA, which has done quite well with our local customers.

With their expertise in design and manufacturing, I knew Cockpit would be the ideal collaborator. I couldn’t be happier with how the vest came out and look forward to seeing it on motorcycle riders around the city. Written by: Dana Glaeser
