Both of these jackets are Vicenza Aero Sheenes, technically not cafe racers without Mandarin collars, although the Sheene is otherwise made by Aero from their cafe racer patterns with a HWM collar. Likewise the Aero Seven is made from their board racer pattern, also with HWM collar.

Great looking jackets and perfect fits Fanch. There's a part of me that wishes I would have gone in this direction for a dress collared jacket, over the 30's HB. The Sheene pattern is such a nice slim fit.

Thanks Tony. A 30's HB ain't no slouch either, and i f I hadn't sold my last motorcycle years ago, I would probably be thinking about riding with something similar to this one rather than with a Vicenza Sheene.

Thanks a lot Ton312 and Aerofan_07! Is nice to hear (read) a honest advice.
Fanch, you got it right. Black leather is not enough. A nice brown jacket is also a "must have". :)
Nick123, Wow! the brass colored zipper looks great! I haven't heard about "Lesco" before. Great find!
Monitor, those are KILLER jackets!!! That's a beautiful collection.
