J24 again looking at what is hopefully the last snow for 10 months. I like this jacket more each day.

I think you’ve found YOUR jacket. Best one in every way you’ve had so far, you’re done now. Enjoy.

Schott 530 cowhide. Found a deal on EBay last week and thought I’d give it a shot (no pun intended).
I wasn’t a fan of cafe racers then I realized they’d be good under a wool overcoat cause they don’t have a big collar. This is my first Schott.

Just arrived this Morning: Vintage BRIMACO Cafe Racer in very good condition and with original Lightning hardware and original lining. I got lucky on sizing as the seller didn't provide me with any measurements - just the size. Light conditions were not perfect this morning.

Wish I was that lucky with my online purchases knowing only the size. Looks great!

oh so, double way main zip is an authentic feature, why do heritage jacket makers tend to see it as a rule breaker for the era?

Better daylight pics now. Good hint from @navetsea regarding two-way main zip which I didn't notice when I unpacked it this morning...nice feature.

Most don't really have a clue about it. Canadian leather makers have been using the feature since forever. I've seen a lot of random 70's jackets with double main zipper in Canada but it often gets disregarded as something "modern" elsewhere.
I don't like it, myself but it's not something that ought to be avoided.

What’s not to like about it? On longer jackets they are great to allow you to move in them easier. I have it on a vintage jacket from the 50’s so they’ve been around for quite a while.

I'm a fan of double zippers

I have only one jacket with double two way main zipper , my Simmons Bilt J100 in black goat. Zipper is a RIRI.

I quite like it , and unzip it a little from the bottom on the Harley , lets breeze in , and the belly out haha...

Perfect length and fit. I'm liking these lengths these days as it's easier to wear your shirt untucked! Great pick up

I love the Gene Simmons collar tab on these Brimaco jackets!
Great pick-up @Robbie79.
