    New in this forum. Help needed with Hercules Sears Jacket

    Thank you for the info. On yesterday I come back to the shop where I bought the jacket. My friend told me that leather is for sure pony or horsehide. Cowhide and steerhide seem to be suppler and thicker hides. [huh]

    Thank you Cicero. I am glad you like the jacket. In fact I don´t ride on motorbikes, just own a sad red sporty italian car :). Not a Ferrari of course [huh]

    Thank you Pegasus¡¡¡. Yes it´s an amazing jacket. Zippers are original and lining is near perfect. The leather is stiff solid and heavy, must be horsehide. I suppose goatskin must be softer and lighter, but may be I am wrong. Thank you again for your help.

    By the way. The jacket leather is a bit stiff and heavy, but not too thick. I think it must be horsehide ... but really don´t know :confused:

    Thanks you for your answers, my friends. The figure that appears in the label is HERCULES, not a bullfighter (I know them well here in Spain ha ha ha ha). I have been looking for this kind of label and it seems to be from 30s. If so, the jacket would be older than I believed. It matches with...
