Brown Stripe Cafe Racer Jacket

A cafe racer jacket with stripes is a different proposition from a plain one. The stripes run the length of the body, and because the racer shape is otherwise so bare, they end up doing all the work — no collar, no studs, no asymmetric zip competing with them.

The build

Real leather shell, viscose lining, front zipper, zipper cuffs. The collar is a stand-up rather than a snap tab, so a stand up collar leather jacket holds its own height without fastening — it frames the neck zipped or open.

Be honest about the stripes

A striped leather jacket is harder to wear than a plain one, and worth being straight about: the stripes decide the jacket. There is no dressing this down into something anonymous. That is either what you want from it, or a reason to buy the plain version instead.

As a men’s cafe racer leather jacket this is the one for somebody who already owns a plain one. Not your first leather jacket — your second, the one with some racing in it. Over jeans and boots it reads track day; under a topcoat it disappears completely.

Sizing and custom fit

XS through 3XL. A leather biker jacket with stripes has to sit right across the shoulders, because anything pulling there shows immediately. Send your measurements and we cut it free.
