Faux Leather Moto Jacket with Zip Front and Lapel
This faux leather moto jacket keeps the biker shapes — an angled zip, a lapel collar you can pop or fold flat, stitched panels across the body — in a loose cut rather than a tight one. The maker classifies the material as imitation leather and gives the main fabric as polyester, so no animal hide is used. Sleeves are cut at 90%, just short of the wrist. The published length is 53–55 cm (20.8–21.6 in), which is cropped at the hip bone. Three colourways. Imported.

How to Wear It
- It is cropped — check the 53–55 cm length against your own torso.
- Pop the lapel or fold it flat; the collar is cut to do both.
- Sleeves stop just short of the wrist by design.
- Wipe rather than wash; a coated finish does not like a machine.

Who It's For
Best for:
- Anyone who wants the biker look without animal hide
- Layering over a tee or a fine knit
- Autumn and mild winter
- Shorter torsos, since the cut is cropped
Imitation leather and what it does and does not do
Imitation leather is the maker's own classification for this jacket, and it is worth knowing what that changes. A coated synthetic will not stretch and mould to you the way hide does, so the fit you get on day one is close to the fit you keep — which makes the published bust and shoulder figures more important here than they would be on a jacket cut from hide. It handles light rain better than hide and dries without staining. What it does not tolerate is heat and abrasion: a hot wash, a tumble dryer or a radiator will lift or crack the coating, and that damage is permanent. Clean it with a damp cloth, let it air dry away from heat, and it will stay looking right. Treat it like an ordinary washable jacket and it will not.
What to Pair It With
Jeans, because the jacket is already the statement. Boots rather than trainers. If you are layering, a fine knit rather than a chunky one — the cut is loose but the sleeves are not.
Care Instructions
Wipe the outside with a barely damp cloth and let it air dry away from any heat source. Do not machine wash, tumble dry or iron a coated finish — heat lifts and cracks the coating and that damage does not come back. Hang it on a broad hanger so the shoulders keep their shape, and keep the zip done up halfway in storage so the front does not distort.
