Motorcycle Jackets: A Century of Leather Design" by Rin Tanaka is a pretty good place to start

Ametora by W. David Marx is a must read primer on American / heritage / workwear and cultural understanding of the Japanese psyche towards them. It’s an excellent read dissecting cultural studies and fashion.

I think it’s a highly relevant for our collective fascination of all things that are well made.
