Knight Rider

Michael Knight spends Knight Rider cutting a neat figure through Southern California, all parking lots, industrial yards and roadside stakeouts. The black Stratege paneled leather jacket does a lot of the talking: hard-edged, practical, and just a little theatrical, as befits a man who seems to arrive already in motion. It is the sort of piece that makes the role before the dialogue does, carrying that cool, clipped energy from one tense stop to the next. Some clothes announce themselves with noise; this one just gets on with the job.
