Key Takeaways
- Inspired by the Honda HRC gear Iker Lecuona wore in the 2024 WorldSBK season.

Design and Inspiration
Honda HRC kept Iker Lecuona and Xavi Vierge as its factory pairing for 2024, with both riders signing two-year deals (Crash.net). The jacket is inspired by Lecuona's 2024 Honda race gear, and the product page describes a season-accurate 2024 WSBK Honda livery with his race number and branding. More Honda-inspired pieces sit under , and a full suit from the following season is the .
Protection and Safety Features
The product page lists removable CE Level 2 protectors at the shoulders and elbows under EN 1621-1:2012, a removable spine protector compatible with EN 1621-2, external carbon-reinforced metal shoulder protectors and TPU elbow sliders. EN 1621-1 covers limb joint protectors and defines two performance levels; the protector that transmits less force in testing earns the higher level (SATRA overview). The standard rates the protector, not the whole garment, and no jacket removes the risk of injury in a crash.
Materials and Construction
The shell is 1.2 to 1.3 mm drum-dyed milled cowhide. Cowhide is a common choice for riding apparel because it is thick and resists abrasion. The page also lists:
- Safety stitching at high-stress seams.
- Pre-curved sleeves to reduce fatigue in the riding position.
- Cordura stretch panels at the sleeves and lower back.
- YKK semi-auto-lock coil zipper at the front and cuffs.
- Polyester mesh lining with one inner chest pocket.
Options and Sizing
Several options are chosen when ordering:
- Speed hump: none, standard, ventilated or hydro.
- Perforation: none, chest, front or full, for airflow on warm rides.
- Sizing: men's XS to XXL, women's XXS to XL, or made-to-measure custom sizing.
- Matching gear: and can be paired with the jacket.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which season does this jacket reference?
It references the 2024 World Superbike season, when Iker Lecuona rode for the Honda HRC team alongside Xavi Vierge. The product page describes a season-accurate 2024 livery with his race number and branding, so the year in the name marks the season.
Is this an official Honda or HRC jacket?
No. It is an inspired-by replica made by Leather Collection and is not affiliated with Honda, HRC or the rider. The design references the 2024 season, and the construction follows the specification on the product page.
What do the EN 1621 references mean?
EN 1621-1 is the European standard for limb joint impact protectors and EN 1621-2 covers back protectors. Both define Level 1 and Level 2, with lower transmitted force earning the higher level. The standard rates the protector itself, not the full garment or its fit.
Can the jacket be made to measure?
Yes. The product page offers standard men's and women's sizes as well as custom sizing. Every jacket is hand-stitched and made to order, so hump style, perforation and size are confirmed before production begins. Accurate measurements at checkout matter most for fit.
