I asked the same question a few days ago on this jacket and nobody replied.

I asked the same question a few days ago on this jacket and nobody replied.

It's kinda interesting because there's some other examples like this of a "poor man's version of more well-known designs, but made with lower quality leather (or goatskin?) sort of like what 5* does but with all Talon stuff, so it's probably 1970's made?

Here's another, already sold...same maker?

Possibly a Classic Motorcycle Jacket? Jackets made by a former Langlitz bubba out of his garage. Short-lived but the jackets were pretty good. I had their version of the Columbia

Looks very much like a Lancer.

The black one right?

 

[Bluechel]

Genius branding....sheesh. Some of these just deserve a better name! Like "Branded Garments"....it's like calling your company "Licensed Products"....anyway THANKS for the head's up, I'm gonna go look up some history. Like a "Cycle Leather" set of products....

Yes, I posted a photo separately since I'm a noob at replying. Many features very similar to the Lancer I used to own. Here are a few more shots...

Yes! There are certainly similarities....thanks for that! The only Lancer I ever owed had the biggest label I'd ever seen sewn better than most labels too.

Never knew that bit about Classic Motorcycle Jackets (out of Oregon?). I have one that I bought because I thought it was an ALs. It has a Classic Moto Jackets label but everything about the jacket seems like it was made by ALs. Heaviest jacket I have ever owned.

Here's another with the same back. You guys are good!

Was Lancer a good brand any details you all could share?

That’s the label for sure. Nicer imo than most lancers I have seen/handled. Mine was goatskin I think.

That one does look like an Al’s lol. Let me try to find pictures of my jacket so we can compare.

Ah, now we're getting somewhere I've needed to go! I have a "cal's clone" too, and it weighs a ton, but the jacket has only the missing label glue spot where your Classic Moto label is, and it's the same size, same location.

The CHP style I used to own had the traditional Lancer label under the inside left pocket but the one I posted about only had a small Lancer label behind the neck. I think there used to be a size label attached directly under this label (mine was missing) and the whole label was only attached at the top end.

I do believe it is made by AL's. All the build features match my previous ALs I used to have and was labelled as an AL's. This thing is a beast and it'd be heavier if it weren't for the hole in the lapel and few more on the back =(
