Experience the synergy of luxury, style, softness and durability with our anniversary edition of the Legendary Black Stallion. Our D Pocket replica of the highly regarded J23 BUCO motorcycle jacket is made with genuine front quarter horsehide, renowned for its robustness and longevity, this jacket is more than just an item of clothing – it’s a testament to your audacious spirit. The Black Stallion’s distinguished black appeal with limited edition detailing exemplifies supreme style. We painstakingly sourced a soft & shiny 1.4mm (3.2 oz.) horsehide, that doesn’t take years to break-in. It has all of the natural marking in grain variations as part of the leather’s unique and authentic appeal, adding character to the finished product. This smooth buttery leather will form quickly to your body and make for an ultra comfortable riding experience. Choose the Legendary Black Stallion 100 Series Leather Motorcycle Jacket – it’s not just about the ride, it’s about how you define your journey!
Much like our previous Black Stallion, this version has subtle differences, some surprise hardware and emblematic features that you won’t find anywhere else. Some of the most popular motorcycle jacket styles of the 20th Century were the J21, J22, J23 and J24 styles from the design house of Joseph F. Buegeleisen of Detroit, MI. The company was better known as Buco. The J24 was hailed as the “coolest motorcycle jacket ever” by Rin Tanaka, motorcycle jacket historian and author of “Motorcycle Jackets – A Century of Design” published by Shiffer Books. Due to their popularity, vintage Buco Horsehide jackets fetch prices as high as $2500 or more on eBay and other auction houses and vintage boutiques. New “Buco clone” jackets are marketed at $2,150 (excluding belt) on other internet websites. While the Black Stallion is not an exact replica of the original Buco J23, we believe it captures the style, quality and detail of the original with a Legendary twist! Some common flaws in horsehide leather can include natural markings, scars, insect bites, and variations in grain patterns. These characteristics, however, are often viewed as part of the leather’s unique and authentic appeal, adding character to the finished product.
We hand-selected our designer, tannery, cutters, and sewers.
