PAUSE Trend: Motorcycle Leather Jackets




Forget biker jackets, motorcycle leather jackets are the new trend.

We, at PAUSE, believe that motorcycle leather jackets are one of the emerging jacket trends at the moment for Spring/Summer 2017. Supreme x Vanson Leather Jacket which was a part of Supreme’s SS17 collection was a huge hit and the jacket is very popular among celebrities such as rappers Fabolous and Wiz Khalifa. Classic motorcycle leather jackets are often made out of waxed leather which adds durability to the timeless design. These jackets tend to feature quilted reinforcements on shoulders, patch and jet pockets, under-arm metal vents, metal detailing as well as zip and/or snap fastening.

Some people confuse motorcycle and biker jackets. So where’s the difference? Motorcycle and biker jackets are two similar leather jackets, however, there are a few differences between the two designs. The very first notable difference is in the styling of collars. Motorcycle collars are stand up, biker ones have a collar that folds. A motorcycle jacket features more padding and it is made to keep you warm, whereas biker jackets have a lot slimmer silhouette.

We recommend choosing a motorcycle jacket made out of a good quality material and paying attention to how the jacket was manufactured to ensure it will protect you and last you a long time.

VINTAGE MOTORCYCLE LEATHER JACKETS

When shopping for a vintage piece, consider the jacket’s age because older jackets do not offer the same safety and comfort as new ones. If you plan to ride a motorcycle while wearing a vintage leather jacket, please note that the protective padding might not give you enough protection in case of an accident.
