Post Pics of Your Cafe Racer Jackets

[Fanch]

Both of these jackets are Vicenza Aero Sheenes, technically not cafe racers without Mandarin collars, although the Sheene is otherwise made by Aero from their cafe racer patterns with a HWM collar. Likewise the Aero Seven is made from their board racer pattern, also with HWM collar.

Great looking jackets and perfect fits Fanch. There's a part of me that wishes I would have gone in this direction for a dress collared jacket, over the 30's HB. The Sheene pattern is such a nice slim fit.

Old pic of my Lesco. Tbh, it's a good budget jacket.

Thanks Tony. A 30's HB ain't no slouch either, and i f I hadn't sold my last motorcycle years ago, I would probably be thinking about riding with something similar to this one rather than with a Vicenza Sheene.

Fanch, you sure know how the jacket should fit, man.

Some of mine.

This is easily the best fitting and coolest looking CR here, there or anywhere.

Thanks a lot Ton312 and Aerofan_07! Is nice to hear (read) a honest advice.
Fanch, you got it right. Black leather is not enough. A nice brown jacket is also a "must have".
Nick123, Wow! the brass colored zipper looks great! I haven't heard about "Lesco" before. Great find!
Monitor, those are KILLER jackets!!! That's a beautiful collection.

It is seriously one of the best jackets I've handled. Heavy, so well made and just super practical. And it looks awesome. It's the one I'm running out of the burning house with.

Techno's collection is some of the finest. That 70's Cal is a dream, and so is Sportster.
