You’d be probably wondering why am I always recommending Amazon and suggesting people motorcycle-related stuff from amazon.

Actually, I think there are other good motorcycle stores out there such as Revzilla and Motorcycle Super Store however they do not compete with the range & variety that Amazon offers.

Plus, i have also noticed that there is always a nice discount on popular products on amazon.

What to consider when purchasing a Best Women’s Motorcycle Jackets:

If you are near the maximum weight limit for your motorcycle, you may find that a full-length (doubles as riding pants) leather jacket will not fit properly. If this is the case, try to find a used one that has been cut down or a side version of a motorcycle jacket – some even have zip-off arms! Some riders in very hot climates wear short jackets when they ride – but then put on long sleeve shirts or regular clothing once parked to stay cooler. Or better yet – buy two jackets – plus a pair of motorcycle gloves and boots to match if possible!

Make sure it’s soft and supple: When looking at leather merchandise it should feel supple and not stiff. You want something that molds to your body and you will feel protected, not constrained. If there is an area on the garment that is stiffened or heavily reinforced (like a shoulder) then it may start to lose its shape as it becomes more used – so avoid those areas if possible.

Quality construction: A good leather jacket or vest with thick stitching should last a long time without showing any signs of wear and tear at all. This also applies to accessories like motorcycle boots, belts, and even bags – especially if they’re made by hand in limited quantities. You won’t get this kind of quality from department store merchandise, but expect to pay more for them no matter where you buy them from. Remember that high-end item are usually manufactured in smaller batches just because the sheer cost of leather and other materials is so expensive.

Different Jackets Are Available With Different Features And Designs

Flight Jackets – a famous style made popular by fighter pilots in World War II. The design is still used today but it’s typically less heavily protected from abrasion than more modern jackets. It does have the advantage of being warm due to the extra layer of wool lining as well. If you’re looking for something casual or vintage, then flight leathers could be a perfect choice.

Racer Jackets – usually very neat-fitting with no unnecessary bulk so that there’s nothing to get in your way when you’re on a track day or professional race! Most professional racers will wear this style for that reason – though often they’ll add special armor to protect all vital areas.

Cruiser Jackets – a slightly more relaxed design that’s not going to get in your way when you’re touring on the highway. They usually have lots of pockets so that you can carry everything easily, and they may also be available with extra features like armor against impact or flame-retardant material if you need it for a long trip where you will stay warm at night.

Scooter Boots – these are almost like a hybrid between real motorcycle boots and riding boots designed for scooters or bikes with smaller wheels. If you want to use them instead of normal shoes then they are great because most people find it much easier to get in and out of them quickly than putting on regular motorbike boots! They do vary though – so it’s worth checking out the reviews to see what people say about them.

My recommendation would be to go for a style that suits your riding and you feel comfortable with, rather than one that just looks good. There are jackets available in most designs at varying prices – but as long as they are well-made then you should find it more than adequate for everyday use.

How To Choose The Right Size Motorcycle Jacket

It’s difficult to say which sizes will fit someone, as manufacturers use different sizing scales. However, here are a few things you should be looking at when trying to decide what size of leather jacket to go for:

The size chart – As already mentioned most manufacturers give you a size chart on their website so that you can find your closest size before buying (or even try one on in a shop). You want the jacket to feel just right – not too tight so that it restricts movement and not loose enough where it could flap about in the breeze. If possible, ask someone else to help choose your size – may be an experienced rider who has worn jackets before?

Shoulder width – Measure from the outside edge of one shoulder down to the outside edge of the other shoulder. This will give you a rough idea of how wide your shoulders are. You want them to be able to move freely inside the jacket so that it doesn’t restrict any movements, but at the same time not so big that it looks weird and clunky.

Arm Length – Measure from the very top of one armpit down to where your wrist meets your hand. Try on different jackets in the shop if possible and see what feels most comfortable for you – don’t forget to try bending your arms as well!

Chest size – Measure around the widest part of your chest with a tape measure or piece of string. Ideally, you should feel no restriction moving this when wearing a leather jacket. You don’t want it to pull on your body when you are moving but at the same time, it should be snug enough to fit correctly.

Waist size – Measure around the narrowest part of your waistline, usually about an inch above where your trousers would normally sit. You want this to be tight enough that your jacket doesn’t come undone while riding and flap in the breeze, but again not too tightly that it restricts movement or becomes uncomfortable.

Sizes may vary depending on the manufacturer so it’s well worth trying one on before buying if possible – for example, I know that Triumph jackets tend to be a little larger than some others available. If you can’t find a shop with one in stock then try ordering from them anyway and return it if it doesn’t fit well.

Tips on how to care for your new leather jacket or vest

Well, it’s a jungle out there. You need to keep your leather jacket or vest in good shape and that takes some work. The following tips will help you get the longevity and style you want from your garment – whether it’s a vintage motorcycle jacket, cruiser leather vest, or a simple motorcycle-style windbreaker:

Protecting your leather jacket from rain….Most modern leather jackets are treated with a special chemical to prevent them (and the wool underneath) from getting wet, although many riders do take extra steps beyond this in order to make their riding gear tough. First of all, it’s a good idea to have an extra set of clothing or two stowed away under that main motorcycle jacket for when you’re on the road — just in case. And if you do get caught in a rainstorm, remember that excess moisture is going to cause some serious discomfort if you don’t immediately dry off once you can safely remove your jacket or vest without getting run over by traffic. If possible – wear waterproof pants beneath your riding pants in case you get caught in a downpour. When you return, hang your jacket or vest to dry and re-apply a waterproofing spray if needed – and wait until it’s completely dried out before putting it away again.

Keep the original tags…Once you’ve broken in your leather jacket (whether vintage motorcycle jacket, biker vest, or simple style motorcycle windbreaker), keep all those little care instructions that came with the garment on hand at all times — just in case! They’ll give you all sorts of helpful tips on how to clean stains from your leather and even the best type of saddle soap for keeping up an impressive luster. Without this information, you might end up damaging your new investment piece by using improper cleaning products or follow bad advice from salespeople who have no clue what they’re doing.

Waxing your leather jacket or vest….For many people, a high-quality wax is a secret to really keeping their jackets in good shape. Waxing helps protect against water damage and restores that aged look — which is precisely why police bikers and 1950s motorcycle racers used to use it all the time before waterproof fabrics were invented. But please note that this should not be done too frequently (and certainly not until you’ve broken your leather piece in) because it can actually cause permanent damage if overused. The best way to do this is by reading the instructions on the canister or can of wax thoroughly so as not to make any mistakes at all.

Keep it simple: If you want your motorcycle jacket or vest to last for many years, remember that the best way to do this is by keeping it simple. Resist the urge to get logos or other embellishments added on in case of anything happens and you need to send it back for repair – which can be a very costly business if done by a professional tailor. Also – avoid getting too busy with big buckles, extra pockets, and any other details (especially decorations that dangle from the bottom) because these things tend to break off and fall off much easier than something sturdier like zips. Think about what you really need when you’re riding. After all, one of the true pleasures of owning a quality leather piece is knowing that you don’t need to carry all the bells and whistles.
