The Corsair No.60

The Corsair is a practical real-leather jacket that’s suitable for everyday wear yet tough enough to wear on the bike. Features include: an all-leather waistband with adjustable side belts, red sailcloth lining, two smart front pockets and a useful inside wallet pocket, rust-proof zippers and an elegant one-piece back panel.

The Corsair first appeared in 1962 and was an immediate success both as a jacket for motorcycling and casual wear. The style was updated in 1965 when it was lengthened. The length of our current version is between the two but as with all our jackets, customers can order the length which suits them best.

A variation of the Corsair jacket style was worn by the ‘Luftwaffe’ pilots in the 1969 ‘The Battle of Britain’ movie.

We take pride in making our jackets to the exacting specifications of the period in which they originated.

Great care and attention to detail has been taken to maintaining the heritage and integrity of our jackets and patterns, right down to the custom made reproduction zippers and even the linings. Because of this, our jackets do not necessarily live up to the present-day riding safety standards and are not intended to do so.
