That is such a cool jacket. I wonder if that jacket was made for Giacomo Agostini AKA the hugger. There was another man that went by the same nickname mane, He used to ride a Kawasaki.

Would be cool if it had some interesting history. I just assumed it was owned by some random overly affectionate dude.

Too bad there is a hole in the sleeve. Described as "some wear" by the seller.

A hole or merely a fold? Can't tell from the pic. If this jacket was a size smaller it'd be mine.

I really like this 50s Penneys Horsehide Jacket - have never seen on before with the double pouch pockets. From the photos it looks like it’s in incredible condition.

This Golden Bear has been on ebay for some time. IMO the leather on this looks much better than 60s Beck 666.

Rich Sher makes good quality jackets but these civilian A-2/G-1 style jackets do not seem to generate much interest. People are drawn more to military issued, the real deal when it comes to bomber style.
