leather motorcycle racing jacket
Can I wear a motorcycle racing jacket if I don’t ride a bike?
I’ve always liked formula car racing and love the leather jackets with all of the sponsors patches. I’ve found some very nice jackets, but they are made for motorcycle riders/racers. I would take the liner and armor out and just wear it casually with jeans, because I like the look. My concern is that people will constantly ask me if I race or ride (which I don’t) or that the jackets are made for riding only, not to wear casually.
If it is a leather riding jacket then the leather will be thick and stiff and uncomfortable. The sleeves will be long and the shoulders will be cut to have your arms pointed forward as if you were reaching for the handle bars. The torso will be a little short since you should be in a sitting position while wearing a riding jacket. If you are just getting a casual sponsor type jacket then go right ahead and wear it. Don’t forget the riding boots!!!
