What is a Touring Motorcycle Jacket?

A touring motorcycle jacket is purpose-built for riders who spend serious time on the road. Touring riding jackets are designed with the unique demands of long-distance riding, which include extended comfort, all-season versatility, high visibility, and maximum storage. Whether you need a genuine leather or a premium textile fabric, these jackets offer functionality, so you stay focused on the road and have a riding experience with convenience. If you ride on touring bikes, baggers, adventure tourers, and GS bikes, you need a jacket that rides with you.

Standout Features of Touring Biker Jackets at Renegade Classics

Every jacket in this collection is built around features that earn their place on a long ride. Here is what you will find in our jackets:

Quality Fabric

Our touring jackets are either crafted from genuine cowhide, lambskin, and sheep leather, or with premium textile options including mesh and Cordura. The leather thickness we offer ranges from 0.11 to 1.5mm, which gives you the natural resistance to abrasion, and textile options give lightweight durability. 

Functional Vents

Zippered front and back vent channels in these touring biker jackets allow you to manage airflow according to the prevailing conditions. 

Double Stitching

High-quality thread is used for double stitching across the entire jacket, and the shoulders are reinforced to maintain structure and support the weight of heavy items carried in the pockets. 

Action Back

Stretch panels built into the liner arms and the back of the jacket allow your upper body to move freely in any direction while riding. Reaching for the bars on a long ride means constant arm extension, and this action-back feature makes it easy to move. 

Convenient Pockets

Hand pockets and chest pockets in these motorcycle jackets carry everyday essentials, while concealed carry pockets provide secure and discreet storage. A media pocket keeps your device within easy reach.

Durable Hardware

Every snap closure, zipper, and buckle is selected for daily riding use. The hardware used in these jackets is not just here for the looks but also built to last.

Built-In Protectors

Some touring motorcycle jackets have padded CE Level 1 armor at the shoulders, elbows, and back to offer you protection even before you reach the road. Armor pockets are also included for riders who want to upgrade their protection level with CE-rated inserts.

Performing Liner

A zip-out, full-sleeve insulated thermal liner is a feature that makes our touring jackets unique. The insulated liner provides warmth, which can be removed if the temperature gets too high. 

Belt Loops at Waist

Some of our designs offer integrated belt loops that allow you to attach your riding pants directly to the jacket, which eliminates the gap that opens up between jacket and pants.

Color Options

Available in black, blue, gray, and green, these jackets offer classic to bold colors with aesthetic finishing and a sharp look.

Versatile Designs

Our collection includes both men’s and women's motorcycle jackets with unique cuts to complement physique and body curves, while giving a strong biker look. 

Breathability

Mesh liners and underarm vents offer good airflow, and zippered vents let riders control them as they want.

Advantages of Touring Motorcycle Jackets

The features we have discussed offer unique benefits whenever you hit the road, either for short-distance rides or long biker tours. Here are some of the benefits:

• Adjustable Comfort Fit: Features such as zippered cuffs with secure closures, side zippers, and a side-buckled belt let you adjust the fit to your body and riding position. 
• All-season versatility: The combination of a removable insulated liner, zippered vents, and weather-resistant outer shells makes these jackets versatile. One jacket can give you year-round benefits.
• Solid Protection: When you ride with a jacket that offers protection features like protector padding in high-impact areas and pockets for inserting CE-level 1 and 2 armor pads, you gain the confidence and peace of mind to ride.
• High Visibility: Reflective panels and piping are selected for certain designs to increase your visibility to other riders at night or during low-light conditions. 
• Concealed Storage: Concealed carry pockets keep your valuables secure and within reach, even when you need to access your carried items during riding.
• Easier Mobility: Stretch panels installed in these touring motorcycle jackets make it easy for riders to reach handlebars without restriction. 
• Biker Attire: The features in these touring jackets, like lapel & banded collars, bold aesthetics, reflective stripes, and a structured shape, give you a rugged look. 
• Water-Resistant: These touring riding jackets can resist water to some extent and are suitable for light rain. 
• Wide Size Range: Our jackets are available in sizes from XS to 5XL, including longer-cut lengths that cover your lower back when you lean forward.
• Affordability: Starting at $129, our touring jackets deliver highway-grade features to every rider within the affordable price range.

A Few Drawbacks of Touring Jackets

Touring jackets are built for the long game, and that comes with a few limitations that you must know before you buy this jacket:

• Leather comes from animal hide, which goes through a whole process until it appears as a leather touring jacket. This makes it more expensive than textile touring jackets. 
• Leather jackets may take some time to break in or to adapt to the shape of your unique riding posture.
• Fully functional jackets can be heavy compared to standard jackets built for mere looks or fashion.

Measure your chest, waist, and sleeve length, and compare against our size chart. When you reach forward in a riding position, the jacket should not pull at the shoulders or ride up at the back.
