MOTORCYCLE LEATHER SUIT
Since the dawn of the age of motorcycling, it was apparent that something was needed to protect the exposed human body from the elements. The natural solution was Motorcycle Leather Suit. The leather motorcycle jacket, a style made popular by such movie icons as James Dean and "the Fonz", not only serves as a fashion statement, but is an essential piece of equipment to any serious biker for keeping warm, dry, and in one piece. The textiles vs. leathers basically come down to protection vs. everything else. It must be said however, that even though leathers offer more protection. All motorcycle textiles have to abide by EU standards and it also provide protection but the motorcycle leathers just offers better protection.
THE ATTRIBUTES OF LEATHERS & TEXTILES
The four most different attributes of the two materials are taken into consideration - price, maintenance, comfort and protection. Each attribute is also assigned to either leathers or textiles, depending on which material has the greater advantage in terms of the attribute.
PRICE
Motorcycle textiles are cheaper to buy than leathers. It is also much harder to judge the quality of leathers and so you take the risk of paying a lot of money for a suit that does not have quality stitching and construction. Just be aware, however it is widely accepted that the textile suit will probably survive in only one crash before you have to fork out for a new pair.
PRICE
The Textile Motorcycle Gloves, jackets, suits and other textiles can be thrown in a commercial washer, while leathers will need to be sent to the cleaners.
PROTECTION
Tests are conducted all the time to compare the abrasion resistance of motorcycle riding gear materials and leather, and the leather always comes out on top as the most durable material. Furthermore, leather does not melt from friction, it will cushion your fall more than motorcycle textiles would and it offers the best protection against a road rash. The fact that the Motorcycle Leather Suit also lasts through multiple crashes whilst textiles will probably only last through one, says a lot about the difference in protection and impact between the two materials.
