American Way of Biking

Highway 1 motorcycle and leisure clothing brings the "American way of biking" to Europe, and will appeal especially to cruiser and chopper riders who prefer rugged bike leathers and classic cuts, without having to compromise on modern safety features. Jackets, vests, trousers, helmets, boots and gloves all come in coordinated designs. Lots of accessories, from belts to bandanas, round out the wide range.

Most traditional, high-quality outer material with cult status for motorcycle clothing and accessories. Unmistakable in its natural, high-quality look, the strong image, ideally suited to both figure-hugging and highly functional designs. The biker's "second skin" still has the edge over any textile material when it comes to safety and resistance to abrasion and tearing. The way the material stretches as the clothing is worn means that leather clothing adapts to the body contours ideally, thus also guaranteeing that protectors fit optimally. Leather clothing should therefore always be bought with a close fit. Impregnation, leather oil and surface coatings guarantee good weather protection and a degree of rainproofing, but unfortunately also limit the breathability. Relatively heavy, but enthusiasts value this as a "quality feature". Looked after properly, it is very durable. Because leather does not itself offer much thermal insulation, the other features of the garment, or the base layers of clothing, must provide some help here.
