Description:

Buco is known for its reproductions of leather jackets. After acquiring the licence for production, Hitoshi Tsujimoto continues to revive the brand with state of the art pieces. This black biker jacket is a reproduction of the 1947 Buco JH-1 motorcycle jacket which was reissued in 1951 with a buckled belt.

The tried and tested durable horse hide leather used is vegetable-tanned with wool lining. The gold Talon zippers were revolutionary when first used for the original design and are a detail providing further authenticity to this jacket. The numerous press buttons attached and asymmetric pockets complete the classic biker look.

Thanks to The Real McCoy's vast vintage archive, they're able to design the JH-1 down to the finest detail. Yet another example why they can't be faulted.
