    Looks great! I’ve always loved the details on these jackets, including the elbow patches.

    Natural HH mistery - Help needed!

    ^^ Yes, the folks who actually make the jackets (and boots) are always warning against over treating, which those of us that buy them are prone to do. I can't imagine that a new jacket would need any treatment so quickly.

    Lina's leather line-up

    It's funny, I don't really think of myself as a cafe racer guy, all evidence above to the contrary. Never gave them much of a second look until coming to this board I think. That Beau Breed hooked me as an easy riding jacket, then once I saw the Kehoe, that pulled me further in. But it's...

    Lina's leather line-up

    This forum has been a bad influence on me! As much as I've tried to avoid acquiring a "collection" of leather jackets, I realize that's just what I've done, albeit on a relatively small scale. At least, enough for a line-up... All these have been posted before, but here they are in one place...

    new Harley one-pocket Sportster racing shirt

    Of special interest to @technovox , I picked up this cool Sportster racing shirt/jacket for a great deal on the ebay. Always liked the minimalist look of these, but never had a chance to try one on. Size 44, fits me just about perfect. I will have to decide if I’m keeping it for the long...

    Dark brown. Definitely hard to get the color right in pics but it looks brown in person.

    I'll say $140 (+$10 shipping US) for TFL, before putting it up on the ebay soon..

    History of the "Cafe Racer" jacket.

    Yeah I've always tended to discount this story, but it is interesting that in the 1961 article above the "ton-up girl" talks about "beating the juke box trick." Not clear what she means by that, but sounds like it might be this. And it's interesting that she refers to it in an off hand way...

    History of the "Cafe Racer" jacket.

    Got this morning a very nice response from Derek Harris of Lewis Leathers. Some great history and he sent some very interesting attachments, which I will include here -- some ads, jacket pics, and even quotes from contemporary accounts of the British "rockers/cafe racers." Derek's history...

    History of the "Cafe Racer" jacket.

    It reminds me a little bit of Alden Indy Boots. I never really liked the movie tie in name, and I always thought they didn't look very boot-like, and then I found out that for decades Alden called them "high work shoes." I liked that much better! I had a pair for a few years and tried at first...
