Classic leather jackets will never go out of trend. Check our list of our favorite motorcycle jackets manufacturers and their top-selling products. Don’t mind the order – we don’t rate the jackets from worst to best. They are just different.
One of the safest leather jackets on the market – the Roadster Series by Helite features a revolutionary Helite airbag technology designed to protect the rider’s back, neck, and core in case of a crash. The rigid support offered by the bag significantly reduces the risk of spinal and brain injuries. The airbag is integrated into the liner and gets inflated in milliseconds from the CO2 cartridge triggered by a tether attached to the bike’s frame. Besides that, the jacket is made from premium-quality cowhide leather with decent ventilation thanks to mesh side panels also serving as expansion panels for airbag inflation.

The airbag is supplied with one lanyard and one cartridge

Interior and exterior pockets
Neoprene collar, with easy Hook and Loop Fastener adjustment
