I'm seriouisly jealous, @Corky Corcovado ! That trucker is as perfect as it gets. Proportions of the jacket are spot on and it's even got the zipper. Man, now I miss my Vanson...
Just got one of these from eBay for a song. Size XL, I usually wear a L but hope this will work as it’s slim fit.
This hide reminds me of my 70's Langlitz cowhide only lighter. How I imagine their lightweight cowhide to be. I'll post more photos soon!What a steal! I'd keep the pockets open. I don't like Type III jackets that are missing the handwarmer pockets.
It looks like yours is made from decent leather, and has a nicely broken in look to it. How heavy is it?
There's one similar on ebay right now, but it has a giant logo on the back, which ruins it for me. I wouldn't mind the subtle branding on the buttons and zipper.
Here's another (sold, alas) with zipper and buttons rather than the zipper and snaps. For riding the zipper is a must have.

Thanks for keeping the thread alive it’s one of my favourite on the forum. Not sure about this one though, seems to get wider towards the hem and it looks a bit too long. Leather looks good though

This is my Levis Leather Trucker jacket in cowhide. Don't understand why so many bash these jackets. The leather is nice and fairly thick,heavy, and it looks great.

I’ve had this since the late 90’s, I don’t use it nowadays as it’s too boxy for my taste but the cowhide is heavy and thick.
I might get it re-worked one day for an optimum fit, it has sentimental value.

Indigofera Grant in black nubuck, via Pancho & Lefty. It's a Type I, rather than the more common Type III.
