The blouson that carries the spirit of Le Mans 1966.

This is not just a leather jacket—it’s a tribute to one of motorsport’s most legendary races. The SHELBY-LM SHEEP CROWN GITANES / ECRU from Classic Legend Motors captures the essence of the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans, an event that has inspired films, dreams, and generations of racing enthusiasts. Crafted from supple sheep leather, it blends the raw energy of vintage racing with the refined elegance of a modern classic.

A colourway steeped in racing history.

The GITANES / ECRU shade is a direct nod to the iconic Matra blue of the Gitanes-sponsored cars that dominated the track in the 1960s. This understated yet striking hue is paired with vintage patches that pay homage to the race’s heritage, while racing-style topstitching and panelled construction reinforce its motorsport DNA. The result? A blouson that looks as fast as it feels.

Designed for those who appreciate the finer details.

Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this jacket is built for comfort and durability. The sheep leather offers a lightweight, flexible wear that moulds to your body over time, while the cotton-polyester lining—printed with Le Mans 66 motifs—adds a layer of warmth and personality. Whether you’re a collector of vintage cars or simply someone who values timeless style, this piece is made for those who see clothing as an extension of their passions.
