Up for sale is a dark brown Himel Bros Kensington Cafe Racer in (assumed) Shinki dark brown horsehide, size 40.

Jacket is in great condition, not much change to the tea-core hide aside from some sleeve creases and very mild wear. I'd say it fits closer to a roomy 36 or a true/slim 38, which is unfortunately just a little too large for the way I want it to fit on me I've concluded after much denial. Therefore, I'm trying to move it to someone who can enjoy it more. It's a true apex-level jacket, just not perfect for me.

I'm not the original owner, but the jacket has certainly been looked after with care.

My measurements flat:

Shoulder 17.5"
Chest p2p 21"
Length (base of collar to hem) 25" - note that the front of the jacket is slightly longer than the back by intentional design.
Sleeve shoulder seam to cuff end: 25.25"
Bottom hem width: 20.25"

If you need more pictures or info, do not hesitate to ask. Please be aware that the "36" on the mannequin is actually closer to a 38 (~40" chest measurement).

Retail $2450
Asking: $1200 OBO
