FAQs
What does the AAA safety rating mean?
The AAA rating is the highest level of certification for motorcycle clothing, signifying maximum abrasion and impact protection.
Can I upgrade the armor?
The jacket comes with CE Level 2 armor included, which is already at the top of the standard performance spectrum.
How do I choose the right size?
Choose your standard chest size as indicated by the UK sizing; remember that leather will contour slightly to your shape over time.
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, this jacket is made from cowhide and does not feature a waterproof membrane; it is intended for dry weather or light mist.
Can this be worn with any RST pants?
Yes, the universal joining zip is compatible with all RST riding jeans.
Is the thermal liner machine washable?
It is recommended to hand wash the liner in cool water with a mild detergent and air dry to maintain the integrity of the insulation.
Troubleshooting
Armor inserts feel uncomfortable or out of place
Adjust the positioning within the internal pockets; the armor should sit centered over the joints for maximum protection.
Zipper feels tight when connecting to jeans
Ensure the jacket is fully zipped at the front and that you are standing in a neutral position to reduce tension on the connection points.
Leather feels stiff after storage
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner and wear the jacket for short periods to allow the natural heat of your body to soften the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your RST jacket remains in optimal condition, always inspect the armor pockets before use to ensure the inserts are correctly seated. Compatibility is straightforward: the jacket includes a universal joining zip that aligns perfectly with all RST motorcycle trousers. When cleaning, avoid harsh chemical detergents; use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner to prevent the hide from drying out. Store the jacket on a wide-shouldered hanger in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. If you have removed the thermal lining, store it in a clean, dust-free bag to maintain its insulating properties.
