Men's Biker Leather Jackets
Men’s leather biker jackets with the asymmetric zip, the lapels that snap flat and the close cut through the chest that the style is named for. Cowhide, lambskin and top-grain sheepskin, alongside plain leather, in black, light brown, red, off-white and dark cognac. Racer-cut jackets sit in here too, with stand collars and straight zips, if you want a men’s biker leather jacket without the lapels. Black is the easiest one to own; brown and cognac show their creases sooner. Sizes run XS to 3XL, and each one is cut and stitched after the order comes in.
The double-rider is the original leather biker jacket: snap-down lapels and a zip that runs off to one side. The Rovan is a double-rider in rich brown top-grain sheepskin, with snap epaulettes, ribbed padding at the shoulders and elbows, and five front pockets. The Marek in dark cognac lambskin keeps the snap-down lapels and adds diamond quilting over the shoulders, a distressed finish and two buckle straps on each side.
For something plainer, the black double-zip motorcycle jacket runs two zips side by side down the front, with silver hardware and long cuff zips. The Brown Leather Biker Jacket is cut from light brown cowhide, with a two-snap collar, padded shoulder panels and zipped cuffs. Racer cuts drop the lapels for a snap-tab stand collar, the way the Classic Black Leather Motorcycle Jacket does, with twin white stripes on the sleeves and back.
Two more lean toward cafe racer shapes: the brown cafe racer jacket and the red biker jacket, which is cut more like a racer than its name suggests. The vintage brown shearling jacket goes the other way, with a diagonal zipper, a buckled belt and a rounded panel that holds two pockets.
Cowhide, lambskin and sheepskin
Cowhide is heavy and stiff for the first two or three weeks, then it gives at the elbows and stays there. Lambskin is soft from the first wear and lighter to carry, which is what a soft leather biker jacket usually means. Top-grain sheepskin sits between the two, with a close grain and a low shine.
Fit and your own measurements
Biker leather jackets for men are cut close through the chest and shoulders, so start there. Sleeves should stop at the wrist bone, and if a sweater is going underneath, go up a size. Every product page carries a size guide with chest and sleeve measurements, and made to measure is free: send your chest, waist and sleeve at checkout and the jacket is cut to those figures.
Made to order
Every jacket here is cut and stitched by hand after you order, five to seven days on the bench, with YKK zips where a jacket has one, then shipped free worldwide. A standard size can go back within 30 days if the fit is wrong. A jacket cut to your own measurements is not returnable for fit. If the stand collar and straight zip are what you want, that is what men’s cafe racer leather jackets are built on. Knit cuffs and a roomier body put you in men’s bomber jackets. Everything else is in men’s leather jackets.
