Thanks for the reply.
Via the Reed website I sent an inquiry and got a reply:
Dan this is a genuine Reed motorcycle jacket Style 102.
It is hard to say how old because we are still producing this style.
Take care.
M.S
Hey all,
I picked up this "Reed" jacket off FB Marketplace for an extremely good price.
I say "Reed" in quotes only because the only place it actually says Reed is a tag on the zip in liner.
The jacket liner itself has no manufacturer labels sewn onto it and I can't see *anywhere* where one...
I've heard rumor that the older Brooks Cafe style (and vintage leather jackets as a whole) have a "slimmer" fit per size than current era jackets.
ie: if I'm currently wearing a 44 River Road with a decent liner...should I be looking for a older 46 Brooks ?
Opinions/Thoughts ?
Thanks, Dan
