- Field Jacket - VESPA - 80th - green
80 years of Vespa – eight decades of Italian mobility culture, design and lifestyle. To celebrate this major Vespa anniversary, Piaggio has created a field jacket that does not treat this heritage like conventional merchandise, but translates it into an authentic utility look. Military green, large patch pockets and a distinctive silhouette meet subtle Vespa details and an unmistakable anniversary print across the back.
The result is a jacket with real character: functionally inspired, deliberately casual and closely connected to the history of one of the world's most iconic scooter brands. Rather than a loud piece of fan clothing, it brings Vespa heritage into a distinctive lifestyle look of its own.
The back makes the purpose of this special edition unmistakable. A large contrasting print combines the number “80” with “YEARS OF”, the classic Vespa script and “EST. 1946”. Covering much of the upper back, the graphic makes the anniversary the central design feature.
The contrast works particularly well: the understated military-green base deliberately stays in the background, while the light-coloured anniversary print puts the history of the brand firmly in the spotlight. This gives the jacket not only genuine lifestyle appeal, but also the special character of a garment from the official Vespa 80th Anniversary collection.
The front clearly takes its inspiration from classic field and utility jackets. Four large patch pockets with distinctive flaps structure the front – two at chest level and two around the hip area. The high stand-up collar and shoulder epaulettes reinforce the functional character inspired by traditional field clothing.
An integrated drawstring at the waist allows the silhouette to be adjusted. The jacket can therefore be worn straighter and more relaxed or drawn in more closely at the waist. The combination of a structured front, straight basic cut and adjustable waist creates exactly the mix of vintage utility and modern Vespa lifestyle that sets it apart from an ordinary casual jacket.
While the back celebrates the anniversary on a large scale, the branding on the front remains pleasantly understated. Above the left chest pocket sits a rectangular tonal patch with an embroidered Vespa script. The colour, edging and embroidery remain within the same dark colour spectrum as the jacket itself.
This tone-on-tone look is a strong detail: from a distance the front appears clean and almost minimalist, while up close its Vespa identity becomes immediately apparent. It is precisely this contrast between understatement at the front and statement styling at the back that gives the 80th Anniversary Field Jacket its distinctive character.
The muted green colour is a perfect match for the field-jacket concept. Combined with the large pockets, shoulder epaulettes, stand-up collar and adjustable waist, it creates a robust utility look without making the jacket appear like a historical costume.
Instead, Vespa uses these classic design elements as a stage for its own heritage. The result works just as well with jeans and trainers as it does with boots or a deliberately understated scooter outfit. A jacket for Vespa riders, collectors and anyone who prefers to wear Italian scooter culture rather than simply talk about it.
The cotton outer material supports the classic character of a field jacket, while the separate polyester lining complements its multi-layer construction.
The Vespa story began in 1946. Eighty years later, that history becomes much more than an anniversary logo. This field jacket combines the visual language of classic utility clothing with one of the most recognisable names in the scooter world – understated on the chest, unmistakable across the back.
An anniversary jacket designed to do more than sit in a collector's wardrobe. It is made to be worn – on the scooter, at a meet or simply as part of everyday life. 80 years of Vespa history translated into cotton, military green and a bold tribute to 1946.
