The leather biker jacket is the one piece of outerwear that never goes out of style. It started on the road and ended up in every wardrobe. Avanzar Leather's biker jackets are cut from genuine cowhide, lambskin and sheepskin, never PU or bonded leather. They keep the details that made the style famous: the asymmetric front zip, snap-down lapels, zipped cuffs and a belted or banded waist.
Whether you call it a biker jacket, a moto jacket or a motorbike jacket, you'll find classic black, distressed brown, quilted, shearling-lined and statement styles here for men and women.
