I wouldn't say it's a real Buco, no. Looks like one of the European reproductions from the 90's. Could be Lee Trevor, Chevignon, Diesel, etc. Diesel would be my best guess.

As for is it a good thing, I personally really love it & would've bought it, especially at 200€. It looks great, whatever it is.

I agree, it looks cool so if it fits you then Yes! Good. I don’t think it is a vintage American Buco jacket.

If you Google Buco Roadmaster, you will find jackets from the 60s and 70s in various styles and quality. One with this lining sold for $400 last year. Buco licensed the name to different makers over the years with varying degrees of quality....many makers use the labels today as well.

You can get this exact Buco label for a couple of $ nowadays. Could've been added by a previous owner.

Or just been sold like that, many makers use the Buco label on jackets that are not real Bucos...

I agree that the OPs jacket looks like a 90s copy.

Not a Buco. Not even old.

Didn't you buy a Buco Roadmaster jacket a couple of years ago? Buco Roadmaster is definitely not the same as Buco, it isn't even the 70s ASEC Buco. Buco Roadmaster seems to be a brand trying to pass itself off as Buco in the 80s or 90s.

My advice is to stay away from the “Buco Roadmaster” jackets if you are looking for an investment.
