Stylish, sporty jackets have real street cred

POSTED: 02/05/2022

Our new stock of lightweight summer clothing includes some smart, sporty leather jackets.

You want to feel as cool as you look when the weather gets hot but still want clothing that will protect you if the worst happens.

The latest jackets from Rev’It and Alpinestars certainly fit the bill.

Rev’It has launched a couple of new jackets in the Matador and Mantis.

  • The £389.99 Matador, finished in black or black and gray, is a sportive three-season leather jacket for on-road touring in dry weather. It features a detachable thermal liner and the perforated areas help you keep cool in summer. It also features shoulder and elbow protectors.
  • Rev’It’s Mantis 2 H20, from £369.99, is a leather and textile jacket for summer riding. The detachable hydratex waterproof liner doubles as a wind blocker while built-in mesh panels on the front, back, and upper arms let air in – perfect on hot days. It has impact protectors at the shoulders and elbows and is finished in black with white trim or black with orange trim.
  • Both can be paired with £399.99 Rev’It Apex trousers. These sport-oriented, racing-inspired leathers feature partial ventilation on the upper and lower legs and knee and hip protection and knee sliders.

We also have the new Alpinestars Missile V2 leather jacket. Priced at £524.99, it comes in black, black and white, and black, white and orange. It offers optimum abrasion resistance and can accommodate the Tech-Air 5 Airbag System.
