I believe its's Black horsehide, but there is nor label indicating type of leather used
it's not Chromexcel. nicely broken in and pliable, estimate thickness around 3oz. not super heavy, yet not light and flimsy at all. very sturdy. alpaca lined body, cotton drill lined sleeves. hidden knit cuff intact, no holes. beautifully vintaged and very good condition. no issues other than a small tear on the right cuff end lining. too large for me, especially around the mid section, hence the sale.

Quoted from Aero Leather website:
The Veste des Rallye is timeless, it's simple two pocket design, comfortable boxy cut and sheer practicality means this Horsehide jacket will soon become a trusted friend. Although cut to be worn comfortably over a lighter weight jacket or a heavy pullover, it can also be worn over as a jacket (rather than coat) but we advise sizing down if it's going to worn as jacket.

Label size 42
Detailed measurement:
shoulder seam to shoulder seam 51cm/20inch
chest between armpit to armpit 63cm/22.8inch
sleeve length from shoulder seam straight down to cuff 61cm/24inch
back length from neck seam to hem 77cm/30.3inch
hem width 59cm/23.2inch

again, if I could, I try to show the fit. here are some photos of me several years ago.
back then, I was lighter weight. 5'9"/175cm 163lbs/74kg, wearing a Aero Veste des Rallye size 38.
use it as a daily jacket, not as a large coat to layer another jacket under it.
usually with a flannel shirt or sweatshirt or moderate thickness sweater. and it's just a right fit,
not baggy nor too overly form-fitting.

Nice jacket, were you the lost world dealer in Taiwan? They still have your photo with LW J24.
