FAQs
What does CE AA certification mean for this jacket?
CE AA certification (EN 17092-3:2020) indicates a high level of abrasion resistance and protection, suitable for significant road use and offering a good safety standard for motorcycle riding.
Can I upgrade the armor in this jacket?
Yes, the jacket is designed to accommodate aftermarket CE Level 2 protectors for shoulders and elbows, offering an option to enhance impact protection.
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, the Oxford Cypher 1.0 Leather Motorcycle Jacket is not waterproof. It is designed for protection and comfort in dry conditions. For rain, additional waterproof gear is recommended.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the brand's specific size chart for the Oxford Cypher 1.0 jacket. Measure your chest, waist, and sleeve length accurately and compare with the chart. The adjustability features allow for some fine-tuning once you have the correct base size.
What is the best way to clean the leather?
Use a damp cloth for light cleaning. For deeper cleaning, a dedicated leather cleaner is recommended. Always avoid machine washing or soaking the jacket.
Can this jacket be used in hot weather?
The jacket features a breathable mesh lining and aims to promote airflow, making it suitable for moderate to warm weather. For extreme heat, layering and hydration are crucial.
Does the jacket have a connection zipper for motorcycle pants?
Check the specific product details or product images for the presence and length of a connection zipper. Many Oxford jackets include this feature for connecting to compatible pants.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Apply a small amount of wax or graphite lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Fit feels too tight or restrictive
Utilize the D-ring tabs at the waist and the accordion stretch panels to adjust the fit. Consider if a different size is needed if adjustability is insufficient.
Leather feels dry or stiff
Apply a quality leather conditioner to rehydrate and soften the material. Ensure the jacket is not stored in excessively dry conditions.
Lining feels warm or not breathable enough
Ensure all ventilation zippers (if applicable) are open. The mesh lining is designed for airflow, but extreme heat may still be challenging. Consider lighter layers underneath.
