The Star Lightning entered the Lewis Leathers catalogue in 1977 and was a long overdue update to the 391 Lightning. After the success of our Racing style jackets in the early-mid 1970’s the lancer front full-collared jacket saw a resurgence of popularity in the wake of the punk movement, Lewis Leathers jackets were now seen as items which could be worn on the bike or on the street as a rock & roll statement. The 392 was one of the new breed of ‘old school’ jackets to appear at this time.
We take pride in making our jackets to the exacting specifications of the period in which they originated.
Great care and attention to detail has been taken to maintaining the heritage and integrity of our jackets and patterns, right down to the custom made reproduction zippers and even the linings. Because of this, our jackets do not necessarily live up to the present-day riding safety standards and are not intended to do so.
