The stripes shout speed, and the hood adds an urban edge.

Track Details, Street Attitude

Racing leathers carry bold stripes on the shoulders and padded sections at the elbows, because those are the high-contact areas. This jacket picks up both ideas as styling. The white and red bands cross the shoulders against the black body, which gives the jacket a wide, sporty outline. Quilted elbow patches add texture and a nod to padding.

Zip cuffs make the sleeves adjustable, so you can open them to push the sleeves up or close them for a tight wrist. Then there is the hood. It turns a racing-style jacket into a streetwear piece, and it adds weather protection and a relaxed attitude.

Styling a Racing Jacket, Sizing and Maintenance

Keep the rest of the outfit simple and dark. The cut is sporty and fitted. Wipe the leather with a soft cloth after wearing and condition it a few times a year. Treat the white stripes with care: dab marks away quickly with a barely damp cloth, and keep them away from dark denim dye.
