made in usa amf era harley jacket

[01flhr]

this just showed up from ebay for me. i thought it looked cool and the measurements lined up so i lowballed the seller and ended up winning. the jackets in decent shape, anyone know anything about these? appears to be amf era except no amf on the tag. The leather is pretty thin and the jacket doesnt look like its been worn much. the leather is thin like a 70s bates i had awhile ago, which im told was actually heavy stuff. this will probably end up in the classifieds to try and recover what i have into it.

Those jackets were in the thin side. Rock that sucker. I do like thin jackets. Here in California, they work well.

it doesnt fit me well. it binds up reaching forward.

Yeah, the 70s era HD jackets are not my cup of tea. Gotta go early black/orange label for a nice, thick, awesome hide. 40s-50s. Even the white label 60s jackets, while able to beautifully grain and break in, were thinner than I prefer. At least the two I owned were.

I just posted a nice HD in the finds/deals thread. Those are there with the best vintage.
