Local find, a very well kept '80's Brooks Cafe Racer jacket USA made in medium gray cowhide leather. Appears to have very little use, just some rubs on the colored leather at the sleeve ends as photos depict. Lining is excellent.

Missing the zip-in liner. No smoke smell, has a light leather scent. Rare for a CR: adjustable waist straps. Not the world's greatest stitching in some areas, it's not coming apart, but not all seams are straight. Tagged a 42, probably actually was a 42L given the sleeve, torso & back length. Fits me well at 6'1" and 195 lbs, but gray is not my cup of tea.

Offering it here for just $100 shipped in CONUS!
Will ship out of country as well, at cost.

Dimensions are approximate:
  • Pit to Pit 22"
  • Shoulders 18"
  • Sleeve (straight down) 27" (really)
  • Torso 23.25"
  • Back 25.5"
  • Waist 20.5"
  • Zipper starts 4" up from bottom hem of jacket.
  • Weight around 4.0 lbs
Photos - color drove my camera crazy, so close ups are most accurate in terms of color. Any questions, just please ask...and I'm open to offers too!

I have one of these in black, but the label on it is missing. I understand Schott also made this pattern at one time. Not sure who else might have.

Everyone. Lesco, Brooks, Schott, Fidelity, Branded... One more but can't recall the brand atm. Brimaco was doing something extremely similar, too.
