This is ace! Like a perfect choir jacket. Never knew Schott did this! They ought to re-release it. In CXL. Shearling lined too for the winter.

I Don’t think It’s the ‘real’ Lewis Leathers - the logo isn’t correct. I think it’s another maker also called Lewis.

I occasionally see these jackets turn up on eBay. They don't look bad but definitely nothing like the LL. I wonder if these were made just before Derek Harris resurrected the company? Somebody got the brand name cheap or something? Maybe @Edward knows more about the deal?

The jacket looks 90's, in any case.

Could be - here’s a similar jacket that sold for peanuts
