    The sleeves on this Sportclad are a tad more than 22 inches. Not for everyone.

    Sears Motorcylce Jacket History 1949-1963

    I will ask pics with measurements. I am interested but shipping cost +taxes to Europe will probably be too much for me, as usual. That would lead to at least $400 or $500 total... Impossible for this one.

    Yes, under Star Sportswear it's written : manufacturing company lynn, massachussetts GENUINE HORSEHIDE. There is a pic on page 514. At this moment it was already better to add Genuine FQHH. The jacket for sale interests me, but effectively it's only 22,5 at back ; and I did not receive...

    I will see. Here's the link to their site, as I did not mention it. They are not cheap, and with import taxes that becomes high. https://www.secondtimeglory.com/categories/2291041

    Sears Motorcylce Jacket History 1949-1963

    This Oakbrook and the other one on page 6 are absolutely similar, the only difference I notice is the red lining instead of black. They may be great repros of some Made in California 1950s steerhide Hercules, with some differences such as the perfecty squared small pocket, the slightly different...

    I am not a big fan of the shinki HH, but it has an interesting special look. But I prefer thicker and heavier leathers, if they are still supple. The photos of the Kurland MC on the japanese site make me hesitate, no significant wear and little to no grain, a bit like flat steerhide, but it's...

    Some photos. That does not look the same as the almost shinki HH posted before. It does not look very thick.

    There is a similar jacket as this black one on a japanese site, with an older throat latch type. It's a Kurland Star Sportswear, and I am hesitating to buy. Is the HH leather quality absolutely worth buying on these jackets?

    Exactly, I am still wondering if it's a 60s jacket, or a vintage Herc with the Oakbrook label. Anyway it's one jacket to buy if it fits. Everything done wrong :) We have to imagine what actual measurements are.

    I don't have enough knowledge. It is similar to some Sportclad, but would need to check details. At this price and size, it's interesting. The leather is heavily worn but it might be a solid jacket.

    If it ships for free to Mars, I may consider put a $10000 on it. I think it's right. I found a similar jacket (sold) from the same guy, in black :

    I thought $11was the price of this jacket, that would have been fair for what it really is. It doesn't matter if it's 100 years old at this point. Do they know that 22 oz denim japanese amazing jackets exist today ? A totally different story. Collection and resale...
