Good Wear is currently listing a Himel/GW version of this jacket for $1500 in stock.
This California Racers is distinctive as it was made by John Chapman in Shinki Horsehide. The NOS Crown Zipper was at least $150 upcharge, the lining probably $200 upcharge, inside pocket charge? Far from the standard California Racer.
Marked as a size 42, but I would estimate it to be more of a size 40. Cafe racers are slim, tapered jackets, this is no exception.
Chest: 21
Shoulders: 18
Length: 24
Sleeve: 25
Waist: 20
It is Shinki Tea Core Horsehide, with brown under the Black. There is one are on the sleeve seam that has wear through (pictured). This is normal and to be expected with this jacket. This is how it was made.
Always nice to have something a bit special. This is it.
Price: $SOLD
Easy payment plan available:
Half now, half in 30 days. I've done it on several other sales. Worked fine.
Here is a link to picture album. Due to size restrictions no Fit Video on this one.
