    What is your all time favourite leather

    I'll keep my vintage Buco J-100 on my short list. Actually it's the only jacket on that list. Fits like a glove and protects me from Kriptonite

    Original Buco J-100 . . .what's it worth?

    I have seen several J-100's without linings and with the small size label sewn in. They were actually factory made and marketed this way. I don't understand the concept but they're out there.

    Do Millennials appreciate Classic Vintage Biker Jackets?

    I hope I'm correct in saying that the leather biker jacket is an American icon made most popular by the Brando, McQueen, and James Dean imagery. It was associated with counterculture and misfits potentially looking for trouble (biker gangs of the 60's and '70's). The look will always be to...

    Do Millennials appreciate Classic Vintage Biker Jackets?

    the millennial group is certainly challenging. Their attitude toward social responsibility may be their moral compass and yes, they may eat soy and wear plethor. And perhaps their interest in vintage just isn't there. We'll stay tuned and watch things to evolve.

    Do Millennials appreciate Classic Vintage Biker Jackets?

    I think new demographics and societal attitudes have changed radically. Harley Davidson sales are trending down. Consequently it appears classic vintage biker jacket demand has softened and the demand has also declined. The interest in 'anything old' has declined in general, at least it...

    Original Buco J-100 . . .what's it worth?

    I do recall a Buco J-100 on eBay back in 2010. It had the 1950's label "Detroit, Michigan", and it was horsehide and all original, wonderful wear and patina - Gorgeous! I tried to talk the sell down from $1600 and he would not budge. . . and you know the rest of the story . . .

    Original Buco J-100 . . .what's it worth?

    You are right about size. Seems like all the classic vintage jackets presently for sale are 36 - 40. The larger sizes were worn out and buried. I did see a couple of larger size Buco and Harley Davidson spotster white label jackets on ebay this past year which sold at the higher end of the...

    Original Buco J-100 . . .what's it worth?

    I've got a Harley Davidson Sportser white label cafe, '60's Bates flat track slanted pocket cafe, and the original Buco J-100. They are all unique with fit, construction, quality, and most importantly the LOOK. I must say the leather on the Buco is superior to the others. The mystique and lack...

    Original Buco J-100 . . .what's it worth?

    I was at RRL as few years ago. Wonderful inventory! However, you'd have to sell a kidney to purchase anything. Their customers are rock stars and foreign visitors that 'need it now'. It's a whole different universe of customers.
