Once mostly made of leather, today combined with other textiles and materials, they will prevent you from badly scratching yourself.

They also protect you against bad weather, rain or snow, but also the wind. Some even have reflective strips making you more visible to other drivers.

The jacket for the biker

In winter, a good jacket is essential to avoid the bite of the cold and enjoy a pleasant driving experience. In summer, a well-ventilated jacket will prevent you from overheating while cooling you down more quickly.
