Layer-able, Lightweight Moto Jackets For Spring

7 comments

Thursday May 5, 2011 by Siofan

A classic, leather motorcycle jacket is the kind of piece you'll wear forever—the more beat-up it gets, the better it looks. Come summer leather is largely off-limits, so we're opting for one of these lightweight moto-style jackets in denim, cotton and linen. Cropped styles will give some edge to a loose summer dress, while styles that hit at the top of the hipbone are suited for body-con skirts and cropped pants.

From top, left: Iro Aurore Jacket C$489.37; H&M Short Biker-Style Jacket C$39.95; Vero Moda Very Denim and Leather Jacket C$151.39; Forever21 Stretch Knit Moto Jacket C$29.80; Old Navy Women's Linen Moto Jacket C$39.50

What do you wear to stay warm on summer nights?
