Today, tradition, values, ethics, masculinity and Truth are That now distant past melded function, craft and aesthetics in ways unknown to today's robotic lemmings. But once upon a time things had to look as good as they performed.... Form and function. STAR GLOVE (later, CALIFORNIA LEATHERWEAR) of Ventura, California 1930s-70s was a premier manufacturer of high quality classic highway patrol and motorcycle jackets. Jackets imbued with presence and integrity. Our elite STAR GLOVE Motorcycle Jacket recreates a scarce, striking late 1930s-early 40s masterpiece. And displays strong local connections to another rare. elite mfg. -- TROJAN Leatherwear LA/Ventura -- in collar, cut and chest pocket configuration.
The STAR projects an eye-opening Art Deco visual signature. Spectacular kidney-shaped D-pocket wth welted zipper entry and exquisite shaped cat's eye buttoned utility pocket (for one's lighter!), suggesting but even ramping up the TROJAN's iconic baroque shape.
Yet every element has functional riding design. In spades. Looks, safety, purpose. And cojones.
Crafted in our New York workshop to extraordinary levels of precision, accuracy and fit in famous proprietary LOST WORLDS Chrome-Tanned American Horsehide. Renowned water repellency, riding protection, durability and natural, untampered grain. A lifetime purchase. Heirloom grade.

'Just Arrived They are Perfect!
The Star Glove really is one of your best jackets.
Craftsmanship is excellent and the leather is some of the best I’ve ever
seen.
Suburban is great as always and full Crown zips are right on target.
Thanks so much,
