This jacket is the new web site example of our Racer made in horsehide leather. We have created an exact copy of the pattern of an original Buco racer from the late 1940s, and use our own Californian brand.

This jacket is comfortable, and it just looks great. The shoudlers are quite square, and the body and sleeves are slender. The profile is athletic. Most originals are black, and we show black horside here, but other shades can be used as well.

Horween Leather, of Chicago, ILL (est. 1905), is known for making many different formats of horsehide. We've chosen a mid-weight chrome tanned format, and this is very comfortable, but with the right heft to the leather. The finish is great, and won't show surface abrasion fast. The base of the leather is dyed quite a dark blue, and the outer surface is a deep black.

We now have original United-Carr nickel plated Line 24 snaps, which can be seen in this jacket. The main slider is a vintage Talon, and the sleeves are also vintage Talon. The chest zippers are branded Waldes.

This jacket is lightly used, and its current condition is shown in the photos.

This jacket will ideally fit a person who is 5'10" to 6'2", with a chest circumference of 43" to 44", and weight of 185-215 pounds.
