Goldtop 1958 Armoured Leather Jacket – Black

If you’ve ever had the pleasure of seeing a Goldtop product up close, you know these guys know a thing or two when it comes to leather motorcycle equipment. The 1958 jacket is no different: it is a beautiful short cut leather motorcycle jacket styled after american aviator jackets from the 1950s with a folded collar and clean, fitted lines. The leather used is a beautifully soft leather that is 1.4mm thick. This is thicker than most motorcycle jackets out there, offering excellent protection against road rash. Because Goldtop only select the best hides and dye them using aniline dyes, they keep the leather soft and supple, making their jackets comfortable from the get go. The 1958 is designed to house the renowned Knox Micro-lock armour and the jacket comes equipped with CE Level 1 armour in the shoulders and elbows and a pocket for an optional CE Level 2 back protector. A sumptuous gold quilted lining adds a nice touch to an already lush jacket, it also makes the 1958 a jacket that is ideally suited for UK temperatures and will see you through all seasons except for the very hottest days.
