I have to add this. This particular Trojan is one helluva jacket. I wouldn't touch it. Someone out there would find it perfect and it is a damn good riding jacket. Note below:
The Trojan in question is roughly 10 years old and I was the second owner. The original buyer indicated that he asked Stuart for the heaviest horse he had but he did not indicate any changes in length ordered. I always assumed the jacket was more like the original Trojans produced for higher...
My buddy Loki came to us through our daughter. Loki is our "grand dog". When Nancy went into the Coast Guard about 6 years ago she asked us to take Loki which was not a problem at all as he was already a part of the family. My daughter had brought Loki back home from the University of Tennessee...
Hmmm obviously would need a lot more work outs on my part. I had a 46 Leathertogs A for awhile but had to let it go for the same reason... A and B are gorgeous but not necessarily for me.
That is a gorgeous jacket Red Devil. Do you mind sharing Pit to Pit and Waist width? I am wondering how much taper the jacket has based on earlier forays in your search.
The time factor makes sense as just about everything going UPS is taking twice as long inside the US. I can just imagine going to the UK would take longer.
You really have a nice one there. I have not seen that lining for quite awhile. I had an LW J-27 with the same Red/Black lining about 10...
You might check out ebay for Womens Harley Jackets Made in the U.S. ( the imported ones are crap) My daughter has one she wears that has some similarities to Schott and other brands that is a decent Steerhide. Here's a shot I made of her wearing it before she went underway on the cutter she was...
Here are 4 different Bike Jackets I use on a regular basis pending on the weather. The wife wanted to make a few shots yesterday of my current group for posterity sake so here they are:
1. LW J-23 in Russet with green quilted lining in body and sleeves. Super warm for winter riding!
2. LW...
Yes, Aero was cleaning and repairing a 1947 Indian motorcycle jacket for a customer and decided to match the jacket completely. http://www.aeroleatherclothing.com/product-detail.php?id=63
That included the lack of snap receivers on the top collar, the lining, Indian tag and the one handwarmer...
You might try putting it on ebay, I think you could easily sell it there. I would emphasize it's spring / summer wear as well as it's historical replication from 1947.
The green quilted is warm to me. I have used this jacket for winter riding with 3 different bikes over the years down to the low 30’s at around 60 mph. It helps that the sleeves are lined with the quilted lining too. Note the quilting is much tighter than the black. This has been my winter...
Here are a couple of shots showing some linings I have procured from Lost Worlds over the years. The Green quilted lining is exceptionally warm and this jacket has it in the sleeves as well. It wears well too as I have owned this jacket for about 7 years. The black quilted lining on the J-24 has...
The main zip is crap and looks to have been changed, notice how it doesn't go to the end of the lapel. Also the jacket looks a little off to me.
I have owned a couple of those early jackets that I purchased for my wife and daughter and the leather was very light weight. They were ok but let...
Good for you Jon! The way the collar lays alone makes this one of the best LW's I ever owned. You should post some fit pics of this jacket off the classified section in a new thread so everyone can see.
