A modern take on a mid-century biker classic

The D-POCKET JACKET from AVI Leather is a faithful homage to the motorcycle jackets that defined the 1950s, reimagined for today’s rider. Crafted from full-grain horsehide leather, this black biker jacket balances the rugged durability of vintage designs with a contemporary slim-fit silhouette. The asymmetrical rock ’n’ roll collar—lined in medium-brown sheepskin—adds warmth and attitude, while the signature D-pocket on the left chest delivers both function and heritage. Double-breasted front closures reinforce the chest, and the bi-swing back panel ensures unrestricted movement, whether you’re on the saddle or navigating city streets.

Built for all-season wear

Inside, a cotton lining provides breathability and comfort, making this jacket versatile enough for autumn rides, winter layering, or spring evenings. Two exterior pockets offer practical storage, and an internal pocket keeps essentials secure. Designed without fur trim, the D-POCKET JACKET aligns with ethical production values without compromising on style. Pair it with slim-fit jeans and boots for a rebellious edge, or dress it down with chinos and sneakers for a polished urban look.

AVI Leather draws its name and inspiration from the golden age of aviation and motorcycle culture. Founded by enthusiasts with deep roots in quality manufacturing, the brand specialises in reinterpreting iconic jacket designs—from aviator bombers to biker perfectos—with meticulous attention to detail. Each piece is cut and stitched to honour the original spirit of these classics while incorporating modern fits and ethical practices. AVI Leather’s commitment to quality materials and timeless style has made it a go-to for riders and urban explorers alike.

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of leather is used and how does it age?

This jacket is made from horsehide leather, known for its durability and smooth finish. Over time, it develops a rich patina, softening slightly while maintaining its structure and gaining character with wear.

Is the fur collar removable?

No, the medium brown sheepskin collar is fixed and integrated into the jacket’s design for a classic biker aesthetic.

How should I care for the sheepskin collar?

Brush the collar gently with a soft-bristled brush to remove dust. Avoid direct heat or moisture, and store the jacket in a cool, dry place to preserve the fur’s texture.

What does the bi-swing back design offer?

The bi-swing back features pleats or panels that expand, allowing greater freedom of movement, especially when riding or reaching forward.

Is the jacket suitable for warmer weather?

While the jacket is unlined except for the cotton lining, horsehide leather provides some insulation. It’s best suited for mild to cool weather, though layering can adapt it to slightly warmer conditions.

How does the double-breasted front enhance protection?

The double-breasted front adds an extra layer of leather across the chest, offering increased wind resistance and durability, which is practical for riding.

What’s the purpose of the D-pocket?

The D-pocket is a signature biker detail, originally designed for easy access while riding. It adds a functional yet stylish element to the jacket’s vintage-inspired design.
