FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the difference between standard sizes and made-to-measure motorcycle jackets?
Standard sizes ship in 10-15 working days from order confirmation and use fixed measurements across chest, sleeve, and torso. Made-to-measure custom jackets ship in 4-6 weeks from spec confirmation and adjust every measurement to your body — sleeve length, torso rise, chest width, and waist — for a precise fit. Both use the same hand-stitched kangaroo construction. See the Size Guide to confirm your standard size, or contact the Help Center for made-to-measure guidance.
How do I measure myself for a custom riding jacket?
Measure across your chest at the fullest point, your sleeve length from center back neck to wrist, and your torso length from shoulder to hip. Wear a light layer during measuring so the jacket sits comfortably over it. Add notes about how you prefer fit — snug for tucked riding, relaxed for casual wear, or layering room for cold weather. The Made to Measure process confirms all measurements with you before stitching begins, and production takes 4-6 weeks from spec sign-off. If you are unsure, the Help Center provides step-by-step guidance.
Should I choose a leather or textile lightweight jacket for daily commuting?
Leather jackets offer superior abrasion resistance because kangaroo leather is tear-resistant and valued in racing for lightweight durability. Textile jackets provide integrated weatherproofing, ventilation panels, and easier care for year-round city riding. For daily commuting in mixed weather, textile suits most riders. For emphasis on abrasion protection and classic aesthetics, leather suits daily riders who want hand-stitched construction. Both accept armor pockets at shoulders and back for EN 1621 protectors. Check the Size Guide to match your preferred style, and compare armor placement by model.
What care does a hand-stitched kangaroo leather motorcycle jacket need?
Condition your kangaroo leather jacket every 6-12 months with leather oil or conditioner to keep the grain supple and prevent surface cracking. Wipe away road dirt and salt with a damp cloth after wet rides. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat and sunlight. Hand-stitched seams and reinforced stress points at collar, cuffs, waist, and hem remain intact with regular care and do not require alteration. For specific cleaning questions or product recommendations, contact the Help Center.
Are these lightweight motorcycle jackets CE-rated for armor protection?
Yes. All lightweight motorcycle jackets include armor pockets at shoulders and back that accept CE Level 1 and Level 2 impact protectors meeting EN 1621-1:2012 and EN 1621-2 standards. Each jacket is CE-rated for its armor configuration. Protectors are sold separately and insert into reinforced pockets. The kangaroo leather provides abrasion resistance during slides, while armor absorbs impact energy at vulnerable points. See the Shipping & Delivery page for details on global shipping, or check the Size Guide before ordering.
