    Alpinestars Jackets? Fake?

    Hi,

    Little confused, as i have had afew different alpinestars leather jackets and a euro 52 fits me fine (42" chest)

    The other day i bought a jacket like this one: ALPINESTARS RED/BLACK LEATHER BIKER JACKET WITH SHOULDER/ELBOW PROTECTORS 42 IN | eBay

    check the size label - it looks different from the other alpine stars jackets i have owned..

    this jacket was too big for me, it fit my brother who is a 44" chest...


    anyone got any idea's? are these fakes? not real alpine stars?

    this is other type of size label - found euro 52 fits me ok

    Alpine Stars Leather Motorcycle Jacket UK/US46 EUR56 | eBay

    Based upon the name of the sell I can only guess the first one is an old style hence a different label. The 2nd one is the label I am used to.

    That jacket has got to be 30 years old, looks just like the one I had as a teen. You going to get a Cafe Racer to go with it?

    Are you saying the jacket is old or you are old?
