FAQs

What is CE AA certification?

CE AA certification (EN 17092-3:2020) is a safety standard for motorcycle apparel. 'AA' is a high rating, indicating excellent abrasion resistance and impact protection, suitable for demanding riding conditions.

Are the shoulder and elbow protectors removable?

Yes, the CE Level 1 protectors for the shoulders and elbows are typically located in internal pockets and can be removed for cleaning or replacement.

How do I clean the leather jacket?

Clean the leather with a damp cloth and use a specialized leather cleaner. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents. Always let it air dry naturally.

Can I wear this jacket in hot weather?

The jacket features a breathable mesh lining and stretch textile for air circulation, making it suitable for moderate temperatures. However, it is primarily a leather jacket and may be warm in extreme heat.

What is the purpose of the TPU shoulder sliders?

The external TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) sliders are designed to help the jacket slide smoothly over the asphalt in the event of a fall, reducing tumbling and protecting the rider from abrasion and impact.

Does the jacket come with a back protector?

The Oxford Cypher 1.0 Leather Jacket comes equipped with CE Level 1 protectors for the shoulders and elbows. A pocket for a back protector may be present, but a back protector is typically sold separately.

What material is the jacket made of?

The jacket is constructed from a combination of durable 1.2mm genuine cowhide leather and abrasion-resistant stretch textile for flexibility and comfort.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels stiff on first wear.

Leather requires a break-in period. Wear the jacket for short periods initially and use a leather conditioner to help soften the material over time.

Fit feels restrictive during riding.

Adjust the D-ring tabs at the waist for a better fit. Ensure the accordion stretch panels are aligned correctly. The stretch textile is designed to offer flexibility.

Water marks appear on the leather.

Avoid exposing the jacket to heavy rain. If it gets wet, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Apply a waterproofing treatment suitable for leather if needed.

Zippers are difficult to operate.

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the zipper. If it remains stiff, a graphite pencil (lead) can be rubbed along the teeth to lubricate them.
