Let me start by saying this jacket *looks* the part. The vintage biker aesthetic is on point—the asymmetrical zipper, the snap cuffs, the subtle sheen of the lambskin. When I first slipped it on, I felt like I’d stepped into a classic motorcycle ad. The leather is surprisingly soft right out of the box (though fair warning: it arrives with a strong chemical smell that fades after airing out for a day).
Fit-wise, I’d call this a ‘slim rider’ cut. I’m 5’11”, 190lbs, and the Large hugged my shoulders perfectly without restricting movement. But here’s the catch—the hem sits lower than expected. While great for casual wear, actual riders might find themselves sitting on the tail. The sleeves also lack zippers (just snaps), which feels like a missed opportunity for adjustability.
Durability seems promising—the stitching is clean and the leather thickness strikes a balance between flexibility and structure. That said, don’t expect heavyweight armor; this is more of a fashion-forward piece than a rugged riding companion. The polyester lining does its job but feels flimsy compared to premium jackets.
The fake arm pocket? Odd choice. Either make it functional or omit it entirely—it serves no purpose beyond aesthetics.
For $137, it’s a solid entry-level leather jacket if you prioritize style over hardcore functionality. Just size up if you plan to layer or want a looser fit for riding.
