My latest vintage treasure is this Levi’s type 3 trucker jeans jacket from the ’70’s. The jacket is patched by the previous owener who was a biker from a motorcycle club from the U.S.A. It seems that his favourite motorcycle brand was Honda. The jacket has a typically seventies look and feel, also the button digits, 52, refers to this period. Besides that the jacket has all the old detail features. The red tab is small e, so it’s produced after 1971. As my favourite denim jackets are always patched this one is a good addition in my private collection. Perfect combination, bikes and denim!

My God…

I even checked http://www.vintagetrends.com (Where I saw it) but they don’t have another jacket that even comes close to this one…
This really sucks.
Have a nice day.
