One of the best Leather 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 $1000 or more on eBay and other auction houses and vintage boutiques. New "Buco clone" jackets are marketed at $1,000 (excluding belt) on other internet websites.

nice post love reading it.
I own one of these jackets and it is truely the best fitting leather jacket that I have ever had on. This jacket is of excellent quality and is warm in the cold winters up here in Northern Alberta. I wear it nearly everyday. Well worth the money that I paid and I will no doubt have it for the rest of my life.
