Men’s Black Cafe Racer Leather Jacket

This black cafe racer leather jacket is the cleanest, most streamlined take on the motorcycle jacket. Made from 100% real lambskin leather, it has a low snap-button moto collar, a straight center zip and a slim profile that works just as well on the bike as it does off it.

What Makes a Cafe Racer Jacket Different

The cafe racer style comes from 1960s British riders who raced their motorcycles between roadside cafes. Their jackets needed to be simple and close to the body, with no wide lapels or belts to flap in the wind. That is why a cafe racer has a short stand collar, a center zip and minimal hardware. The result is a sharper, more modern look than a classic biker jacket, which is why it is so easy to wear every day.

Black Cafe Racer Leather Jacket Details

• Snap-button moto collar that keeps the neckline clean
• Center zip closure for a straight, streamlined front
• Quilted panels across the shoulders for structure and a motorcycle edge
• Three zip pockets: one diagonal chest pocket and two lower pockets
• BOSS WEARS sleeve patch and an embossed interior label

Black Lambskin for Every Occasion

Black is the most versatile color a leather jacket can come in. Wear it with a white tee and blue jeans for the classic look, with a black hoodie and cargo pants for streetwear, or over a knit and chinos when you want something sharper. The lambskin is soft and light from the first wear, and its natural grain develops more character over time. A polyester lining keeps it comfortable through the day.
