I absolutely love this jacket. The pattern makes it feel tailored, but also comfortable and with good mobility. This is a lighter weight leather jacket - so good for warmer climates and more regular wear, but I would not personally put this on to head out on a motorcycle (I have a heavyweight Aero cross zip also up for sale which feels like armour in comparison). I’ve hardly had chance to wear it since buying it, but it has been stored with care. Check out the photographs - the lining looks like new.

These currently retail at £1399, which translates to approximately USD $1850. Will sell for $925 plus postage costs.

what leather is this?
There’s not a huge amount of information given about the leather but the website does say that it is 2.5oz Italian, premium grade, veg-tanned horsehide. Also:

100% wool plaid lining to body
100% cotton silesia sleeve linings
100% cotton-drill pocket linings
Dull-nickel vintage metal zips
Shuttle-loom woven labels
D-Pocket.

They go on to say that it bares a striking resemblance to several of the early Buco models such as the J-21 and J-24, and that is precisely because they were the inspiration behind it.
