What should you pay attention to when buying a motorcycle jacket?
Nowadays, when you want to buy a motorcycle jacket, you can pay attention to many different points. There are all kinds and types, but what kind of motorcycle jacket suits you best? The choice of a certain type of motorcycle jacket is personal and has everything to do with the way you use your motorcycle, what kind of motorcycle you have, how often you ride and what you want to radiate on your motorcycle.

Motorcycle jackets for multiple types of riders and motorcycles
How you will use your motorcycle partly determines the clothing style you choose, more than the choice of leather or textile. If you are a sporty rider, you will rather choose a short motorcycle jacket, a leather motorcycle combination or a leather overalls. If you sit on the bike in your sporty position, a short jacket is more pleasant, because a long jacket will get in the way at the bottom. If you are a tour driver or a motorcyclist who commutes to work, you usually opt for a longer motorcycle jacket that completely covers your back and a fully (waterproof) textile motorcycle clothing set.

Buy textile or leather motorcycle jackets, what can I pay attention to?
Textile is a lot more flexible than leather. In addition, with textiles it is also possible to wear your own clothing underneath, due to the extra space you have. This is especially useful for people who drive to work every day and don't want to change. This extra space also gives you more breathing space. A leather motorcycle suit quickly heats up on a summer day. Textile motorcycle clothing is breathable, waterproof and equipped with ventilation zippers. Textile is also easy to maintain in terms of maintenance. Throw in a little laundry detergent in the washing machine and your clothes will be clean again.

Leather is a very strong and durable material. Because the leather is very tight around your skin, it hardly moves during a possible slide. This makes the chance of tearing very small. A sporty leather jacket is also more pleasant when riding a sporty motorcycle because the model of the jacket fits comfortably to the position you adopt on the motorcycle.
