Nice jacket. I'd like to find a cafe racer with the padded shoulders and elbows, like the Belstaff Outlaw. But the white stripes on this one don't really do it for me.

Anybody know anything about the SCM label?

Yes, you will get same jacket.
According to the Tanaka book, the Langlitz Green label is the first actual "Langlitz" label.
Before that he used a white "speedway togs" label in 47-48 and then a green "speedway togs" label from 48-49.
He then switched to the green "Langlitz Leathers" and used that label from 50-56, supposedly this is the period during which most of the designs were refined to what they are now.

What jacket is that actually? Many weird-ish details and label in German.

I like this a lot! Even the sleeve seam adds up to the cool.

Speaking of J.C. Penney... Tagged 44, but measurements would make it more like a 40, and some stitching and lining repairs needed, and I gotta say the shipping charge is head-scratching for Parcel Select...BUT, with all that said...the price is only $90, and goodness, this. is. lovely. If it were a bit bigger I'd be buying instead of posting.

The photos of the Type III on that website are some of the best I have seen. All their photos look good!

Hey carumba ! Converted to Australian dollars the Jean jacket is $1200 ! ON SALE ? ( PLUS post to Australia @100 $AUD)
I bought 2 brand new Vanson jackets, a Comet and a Sturgis for $900 the pair Australian delivered to the door in Perth WA !
So a good post , but certainly not a "deal" s far as I can see ?

It looks like an Aero Leather ‘Luftwaffe’ jacket made by Aero Leather. The label has the usual Aero words but translated into German. I believe they made this jacket a few years ago but it’s not on their website at present. It’s the ‘Luftwaffe’ not the ‘Hartmann’ - the latter doesn’t have handwarmer style front pockets. Check out Eastman Leather Clothing for pics of the two styles.
