Leather Motorcycle Vests

These vests are made for riders who want a layer of leather over the chest and back. Most are cut from cowhide, and one style uses sheepskin. Black is the main color, and a few styles come in brown, pink or white. Each vest is hand-stitched and made to order. Leather Collection has made leather gear since 2009.

BENEFITS

Leather blocks the wind and stands up to road grit. A vest is easy to wear over a shirt or a hoodie, or under a jacket. Leather thickness runs from 0.9 to 1.5 mm, based on the style. Thin leather feels light on warm days. Thick leather feels firm and solid. Hand-stitched seams hold the panels in place.

PRODUCT TYPES

Snap front vests: the vest with buffalo nickel snaps and the snap front vest for men close with metal snaps. They give a classic biker look.

Side lace and strap vests: the braided leather sleeveless vest has laces at the sides. The rider vest with Velcro side straps lets you set the fit at the waist.

Pockets and summer wear: the biker leather vest with pockets has room for small items. The perforated summer leather vest has small holes that let air in on hot days.

BUYING GUIDANCE

What size should I choose? Measure your chest, waist and shoulders over a thin shirt. Then compare the numbers with the size chart. If you will wear a thick layer under the vest, measure over that layer.

Can I get a custom size? Yes. Every vest has a Custom Size option. Read how made to measure works, and the vest is cut to your own numbers.

Which lining can I pick? Choose a regular lining, a printed (sublimated) lining or no lining at all. You can also upload your own design for a printed lining.
