"Motorcycle Black Madonna Two wheeled Gypsy Queen"1

In 1959 at the age of thirteen I saw a woman wearing a classic motorcycle jacket in Grenwich Village putting down the kickstand on her vintage BMW motorcycle. She had the air of a gunslinger, the strength of a field hand and the beauty of a covergirl 2. She was at least five years older than I was and I felt cheated.

The Women's Classic Motorcycle Jacket I is cut extra long in the back with a padded kidney panel. Dual front and rear vents move the air easily through a mesh shell while an internal wind flap stops it cold at the zipper. A zip out liner with a hide-away fleece neck warmer completes the climate control package.

Side lacing enables you to contour the motorcycle jacket to your body and an inside snap pocket is set in the leather facing where it won't rip out. Leather is 1.2 to 1.4 mm soft, thick and supple with a dull finish.

The difference between the Women's Classic Motorcycle Jacket I and Women's Classic Motorcycle Jacket II is that the Women's Classic Motorcycle Jacket I has a watch pocket and a half belt in front. Outside of that they are the same motorcycle jacket.
