Five (5) jackets just like the images show are now available

Good Wear Leather and Himel Bros. have been working together and our latest model of jacket is a Cafe Racer. This jacket is based on the pattern of an original Buco Racer, so for those familiar with the pattern, this will be a familiar design. We have only one available right now, made with black "teacore" Shinki horsehide, and for now, only in size 44. If you know John's typical size 44, this jacket will fit just right - we have a solid number of people who have been regularly purchasing his size 44 jackets, and we expect that these five will sell quickly.

This jacket is comfortable, and the horsehide has beautiful, natural grain. The pattern is dignified and will do well for those who ride. The main zipper and sleeve zippers are all vintage NOS Talons, from GW's strong collection of vintage Talon zippers. The chest zipper is a reproduction No.5 nickel Waldes diamond chain, but later jackets will have vintage Talon and Conmar zippers, as we literally just got 300 vintage No.3 nickel and brass NOS chest zippers.

We have plans to make a run of different sizes for this pattern, and all will be stock sizes.

About Himel Bros. Leather Co.—founded 2008 in Toronto, Canada, Himel Bros. is led by David Himel, a prolific collector and student of the history of leather and vintage garments, and a passionate producer of high–end leather jackets. David and John have been friends since meeting about the production of jackets in 2009, and these jackets are the fruit of their shared interest.

This jacket will ideally fit a person who is 5'11" to 6'2", with a chest circumference of 42-44", and weight of 175-210 pounds.
