Maybe something like that might be offered by motorcycle shops that also carry related gear?

I am assuming it is a legit motorcycle jacket, based on the helmet in his hand. So you would be able to find Leather jackets like that at most motorcycle shops. However, motorcycle ones may have longer arms then fashion jackets as they ride up a bit when you ride.
Vanson makes good leather jackets, a bit pricey, especially if you wont be riding with it. But the products are good.

It does look like a functional motorcycle jacket, close fitting on the arms and all over to minimize flapping in the wind at 75mph. I might caution against getting a real sport bike jacket for everyday wear, as I don't think they are comfortable enough, since they usually are made from a relatively stiff hide, are close fitting, and with a narrow collar.
The original is the Schott 141 http://www.schottnyc.com/products/other/made-in-usa/classic-racer-leather-motorcycle-jacket.htm
Well there is the Model # 641 if you want to argue that Horsehide is more traditional.
