Perforation is how racing leathers vented before mesh existed — air moves through the panel at speed, where the arm is most exposed.

White sleeves are the classic period racing contrast, and they are the reason this jacket gets looked at from across a car park.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhite leather also shows its history. It picks up marks at the elbows and cuffs, so the jacket ends up recording the rides rather than staying showroom-clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho buys this jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCafe racer and classic bike riders\u003c\/strong\u003e — the styling matches the machines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRiders who want a jacket with a story\u003c\/strong\u003e — the patches are specific, not generic branding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnyone tired of plain black\u003c\/strong\u003e — two-tone with patches is a long way from the default\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRiders who wear the jacket off the bike too\u003c\/strong\u003e — the cut works with jeans and boots without reading as riding gear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eProtection\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a leather outer shell: full-grain cowhide for abrasion resistance, reinforced stitching at the stress points.
