Anyone know where you can buy the race replica lucky strike racing jackets?
I've been to a few shops in the Cape Town area, but haven't had much luck

Well, it's not really much of a replica considering the fact that the guys who race don't wear jackets

Yeah, but wearing a one piece suite every day is impractical so they make a jacket that looks like the top half, a replica?

Hmmm, well i was under the impression that a Replica was a copy of something, not a "looks like it but that's all".

While i DO understand that it's impractical, the "Replica" label is rather misleading.
I'm tired...

Its a replica of the riders full leather suit. Its the same logos and sponsor labels and all that, but its just in jacket form and not a full leather suit.

Have you tried the leather shop upstairs at Canal Walk. They have plenty of bike jackets.
