Was about to wear mine out...girlfriend told me I'd look daft...now I've just sold my bike but I've kept all my stuff...I like my jacket and if it didn't have all the pads already woven in place I'd remove them. I would have bought the jacket style if I were not a biker..It's a black Furygan jacket and I think it's OK to wear without sitting on a bike...do you guys wear your biker Jackets out ?

yes because its the only waterproof coat i own.
i tried driving in my leather jacket once - bad move as the back armour made it soo uncomfy.

Conversely, I was wondering about this the other day. Well actually, I was wondering if they're ok on a matching bike?

Don't get me wrong, love race-rep paint jobs, and am quite ok with the clothing, but, I just think together, they seem a bit, I dunno, like they're screaming "LOOK AT ME I'M A COLOUR-COORDINATING BIKER!" or something along those lines.

Is it just me then? confused

Agree that colour coordination is the pinnacle of naffness. Having GSXR, Fireblade or whatever stitched onto the back of your jacket is equally sad.

Some leather jackets are very wearable though. I like some Dainese and Furygan stuff.
