FAQs

Is the D3O armor included with the jacket?

Yes, the Richa Charleston Leather Motorcycle Jacket comes standard with D3O protectors for the shoulders, elbows, and back.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the product's sizing chart and measure your chest and waist accurately. It is recommended to try the jacket on if possible, or consult with a retailer for fitting advice, as leather jackets should fit snugly but not restrict movement.

Can I remove the thermal lining?

Yes, the thermal lining is removable via a zipper, allowing you to adapt the jacket's warmth for different weather conditions.

What is the CE certification level?

The jacket is AA CE certified, which is a high level of protection for motorcycle apparel.

How should I clean the leather jacket?

Wipe the jacket with a damp cloth and use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner periodically. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals.

Does this jacket have a connection zipper for riding pants?

The Richa Charleston Leather Motorcycle Jacket typically features a connection zipper, but the specific type and length may vary. Please check the product details or inquire with your retailer.

Is the ventilation system effective in hot weather?

The Airtech controllable ventilation system allows for airflow adjustments to help manage temperature in warmer conditions, complementing the removable thermal lining.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size based on accurate measurements. Leather jackets may require a break-in period; wear them for short durations initially. The removable thermal lining can also affect fit; try removing it.

Ventilation zippers are stiff.

Gently work the zippers back and forth. Apply a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant specifically designed for zippers.

Leather appears dry or stiff after cleaning.

Apply a quality leather conditioner after cleaning and allow it to absorb fully. This will restore moisture and suppleness to the leather.
