Women's Jacket Oakwood ELECTRA NOIR 501

Meet the Electra Noir 501: a biker jacket that rewrites the rules without losing its soul.

This isn’t just another leather jacket—it’s a piece that balances the raw edge of motorcycle culture with the polished ease of modern tailoring. Crafted from supple sheep leather, the Electra Noir 501 carries the weight of biker tradition while stepping confidently into contemporary wardrobes. Its slim fit flatters without restricting, and the glossy finish gives it a dynamic presence, whether you’re on the back of a bike or walking through the city.

A design that respects the past but speaks to today.

The Electra Noir 501 draws from the iconic biker silhouette but refines it with thoughtful details. The standout feature? Its Mao collar, a nod to vintage workwear, paired with a snap-button placket that adds a touch of utilitarian charm. The asymmetrical metal zip runs the full length of the jacket, a signature of the biker aesthetic, while the adjustable waist belt—secured with a snap button—lets you tailor the fit to your mood. The pocket configuration is where the jacket truly shines: two horizontal zippered pockets sit above two larger flap pockets, offering both style and practicality. It’s a layout that’s as functional as it is distinctive.

Versatility that doesn’t compromise on attitude.

This is a jacket built for all seasons. The sheep leather is lightweight enough for spring and autumn, yet substantial enough to layer over a sweater when temperatures drop. Its slim fit and sleek lines make it effortlessly adaptable—pair it with jeans and ankle boots for a casual day out, or throw it over a leather trouser for a bold, rock-inspired look. It even works with a dress, adding an unexpected edge to feminine silhouettes. The Electra Noir 501 isn’t just a jacket; it’s a statement piece that evolves with you.

Oakwood has spent decades mastering the art of leather outerwear, blending heritage techniques with contemporary design.

Each jacket is crafted to tell a story, not just through its design, but through the way it wears in over time. It’s a brand for those who see leather as more than just a fabric—it’s a second skin.
