Ultra Naked Leather * Mandarin Collar * 4 Outside and 2 Inside Pockets * Side Zips * Zip-out Liner

***Naked leather is a term popular among companies selling jackets, trousers, chaps, gloves and other riding apparel for motorcycle riders. It is smooth on one side and rough and nappy on the other.

Manufacturers variously describe naked leather as "natural" or untreated when in fact it has usually been immersed in aniline, a chemical that keeps the surface porous, allowing the leather to "breathe." This makes it more comfortable in both cold and hot weather. Purists insist that all of the natural grain in naked leather must be preserved.
