Gapstar motorcycle jacket
This is a special item for my friend Harold prophitius, a salesmanager from G-star nederland.
When i was a employee at Bluetiek-in in 1990 i bought this jacket.
Bluetiek-in were the first which sold Gapstar in rotterdam.
One of the first leather jackets in the Gapstar collection is this one.
A very thick and heavy leather jacket"50's motorcycle style".
The worn out look was already there when i puchased the jacket.
the brand name back then was Gapstar instead of G-star.

lone wolf boots by sugar cane




These boots are always first quality garment.
they use for example only cat paw's sole. they where one of the first to use oil resistent rubber. they begun to use it in 1904 and in 1936 the official logo with the cat is now registered. It is difficult to get these boots,i think japan is only option but then the problem is the sizing,they had to fit very well if your paying €385.
