FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What makes a semi motorcycle jacket different from a full race suit?
Semi motorcycle jackets prioritise comfort and flexibility for daily commuting and casual riding. Unlike full race suits, they feature adjustable cuffs, breathable ventilation, and removable padding—ideal for varied riding conditions. Both offer CE-rated armor pockets at shoulders and back that accept EN 1621 protectors. Semi jackets in kangaroo leather weigh less than textile alternatives, making them suitable for city commutes and weekend rides across variable weather. See the
Size Guide for accurate fit before ordering.
Is hand-stitched kangaroo leather better for motorcycle jackets than machine-sewn alternatives?
Hand-stitched construction reinforces stress points at collar, cuffs, waist, and seams—critical areas during slides and extended wear. Kangaroo leather provides tear strength and abrasion resistance valued in professional racing, yet remains lighter than cowhide. Machine-sewn jackets cannot achieve the density and precision of hand-stitched seams at these pressure zones. Each jacket is hand-stitched by experienced craftspeople, then conditioned with leather oil before shipment. Standard sizes ship 10–15 working days from order; made-to-measure versions ship 4–6 weeks from spec confirmation. Explore all styles at the
Made to Measure page.
How do I measure for a semi motorcycle jacket that fits properly?
Measure chest, sleeve length, and torso length with a soft tape measure whilst wearing a base layer. Choose the larger measurement if between sizes. Made-to-measure options tailor sleeve length and torso to your exact specifications for a secure, comfortable fit. Standard sizing ranges from US 32–50 across all styles. The
Size Guide provides step-by-step instructions and comparison charts for both standard and custom measurements. Made-to-measure orders include full measurement support during the ordering process.
What are CE-rated armor pockets, and do all semi jackets include them?
CE-rated armor pockets meet EN 1621-1:2012 standards and accept removable EN 1621 impact protectors at shoulders and back. These pockets reinforce critical zones without adding bulk, making them ideal for semi jackets worn on commutes and casual rides. Armor acceptance allows riders to customise protection levels based on their riding style. All leather, textile, and bomber variants in our semi jacket range include armour-ready pockets. Conditioned regularly every 6–12 months, the kangaroo leather maintains flexibility around these reinforced areas. Contact the
Help Center for specific protector recommendations.
How should I care for a semi motorcycle jacket to extend its lifespan?
Condition kangaroo leather every 6–12 months with a leather oil or balm to keep it supple and prevent surface cracking. Wipe down the jacket after wet rides and allow it to air-dry naturally away from direct heat. Store in a cool, dry space during off-season months. Regular conditioning maintains the natural grain texture and supports the integrity of hand-stitched seams, especially around collar, cuffs, and waist areas. Textile jackets should be wiped clean and air-dried similarly. The
Made to Measure page includes care guidance specific to your jacket type.
