Your biker jacket’s double life’s about to be exposed

It’s the perfect time of year to parade your leather jacket around town. It’s the subtle differences in a jacket’s cut that really make a difference – think collars or none, zips in the middle or slightly off-centre.
The racer jacket
It doesn’t really get more low-key than this. The racer jacket is mainly characterised by one thing: nothing. It doesn’t have a lapel, just a small stand-up collar. It also has an unwavering zip that goes from A to B without any detours as well as two unobtrusive side pockets. If it’s a very elaborate model, it might be entrusted with the addition of one or two zip pockets just above the chest.
Whether you get into the saddle of your Kawasaki (wearing a helmet, of course) or hit the streets on foot is entirely up to you. The main thing is that you know what you’re actually wearing.
