A blouson that carries the spirit of endurance racing in every stitch.

The MARLON GREEN from Classic Legend Motors isn’t just a leather jacket—it’s a tribute to the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans, where speed, precision, and timeless style collide. Crafted from supple sheep leather, this piece balances the lightweight feel of lambskin with the durability of a slightly more mature hide. The result? A blouson that’s as comfortable as it is resilient, designed to move with you whether you’re on the road or in the stands.

Inspired by motorsport heritage, built for everyday wear.

This jacket takes its cues from the iconic racing jackets of the 1960s and 70s, a golden era when leather was as much about performance as it was about style. The regular fit ensures a versatile silhouette that works with everything from jeans to tailored trousers, while the biker-style collar adds a touch of edge. Unlined and unfussy, it’s a year-round piece that adapts to your pace—light enough for spring evenings, substantial enough to break the autumn chill.

Green isn’t just a colour—it’s a statement.

This deep, rich green isn’t just a nod to the racing flags of Le Mans; it’s a shade that evolves with wear. Sheep leather develops a unique patina over time, softening and darkening in the areas you use most—your elbows, the edges of the collar, the places where your hands rest. It’s a jacket that tells your story, one ride at a time.

Classic Legend Motors doesn’t just make leather jackets—it revives the spirit of motorsport’s golden age. Specialising in pieces inspired by endurance racing, the brand blends vintage aesthetics with modern manufacturing, often drawing from iconic events like the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Their jackets are designed for those who appreciate the romance of the open road as much as the thrill of the race, with a focus on quality materials and timeless design. Each piece is built to last, just like the legends it honours.
