VINTAGE LEATHERS

'70s Lewis Leathers/Rivets style black leather, no name but nice worn look. Has had a new main zip. Size 40". £65 (if it had a name it would be four times the price). Hondastyle leather. 36" though will fit larger if you're not the fleshy type. £45. Post Worldwide on either.

HI STAR

Nigel Stark's company Hi-Star has been trading in vintage bike gear for over 13 years. I usually see him at Newark and sometimes Rufforth Autojumbles, you will know his stall by the Rocker leather on a pole high in the air.
I have a few old jackets and he has been helpful in identifying and dating them for me.
If you are after some old gear have a browse on his website, gives you an excuse to look at the Moss anyway.

LEWIS LEATHERS

I bought this excellent little 1966 Lewis Leathers catalogue and price list from the autojumble yesterday. I'll take a Lightning jacket at 10 pounds 19 and a tanner please. 4 bob post seems a bit steep though.
There are great product names, how about "Mudlarker" trousers, "Weskit" waitcoat and the ladies "Gaytee" overshoes. Some real good stuff on the back pages as well including steers head studs, chequered sellotape and my favourite a rabbits foot zip pull.
