• Off-road: sporty, bold look inspired by off-road motorcycles and rallies.

• Touring: classic touring style, with a balanced and timeless look.
• Urban: modern, casual appearance suited for everyday and city riding.
• Vintage: retro-inspired look with classic materials and designs, authentic and timeless.

• Textile: a versatile motorcycle jacket made from synthetic fabrics, suitable for a wide range of riding styles and weather conditions.
• Mesh: a highly ventilated jacket with large mesh panels, designed to maximize airflow in warm weather.
• Gilet: a purely aesthetic sleeveless motorcycle vest with no protective function. Always made of leather and often customized with patches.
• Gore-Tex: a waterproof and breathable jacket featuring a Gore-Tex membrane, ideal for riding in rainy and changing weather conditions.
• Leather: a leather motorcycle jacket with a classic or sporty look, known for its durability and high abrasion resistance.
• Motor hoodie: a casual-looking hoodie with integrated protection, ideal for a more everyday appearance.
• Motor shirt: a jacket that looks like a classic shirt but offers the protection of a modern motorcycle jacket.

Wind-waterproof indicates how well the motorcycle jacket protects against wind and rain. Depending on the jacket type and membrane, protection can range from fully waterproof and windproof to only windproof or not waterproof at all.

• Gore-Tex waterproof: the jacket is equipped with a Gore-Tex membrane, making it fully waterproof and windproof while remaining breathable.
• Waterproof: the jacket has a waterproof membrane that makes it fully waterproof and windproof, but this membrane is usually less breathable than Gore-Tex.
• Windproof: the jacket effectively blocks wind but does not provide full rain protection.
• Not waterproof: the jacket offers no protection against rain and is only suitable for dry weather.

The specification "Membrane" describes how the waterproof membrane is integrated into the motorcycle jacket. Depending on the type, the membrane affects the jacket’s waterproofness, comfort, and versatility.

• Laminated: the membrane is bonded directly to the outer fabric, preventing the jacket from absorbing water and becoming heavy or cold. These jackets provide excellent comfort in wet conditions, but typically have limited ventilation and can feel warm in summer.
• Removable: the membrane can be inserted or removed, making the jacket multifunctional. In rain, the membrane can be installed for waterproofing. It sits under the outer layer, which can absorb water, so the jacket may still feel wet or cold. In warm, dry weather, the membrane can be removed for better airflow.
• Fixed: the membrane is non-removable and non-laminated. It provides the expected waterproofness, but the outer fabric is still exposed to rain and cold. This type is less suitable for summer and usually represents a budget-friendly option.
• None: the jacket contains no waterproof membrane and does not offer protection against rain.

Thermal lining indicates whether the motorcycle jacket includes an additional insulating layer to provide warmth in cold conditions. Some jackets feature a full thermal lining with sleeves, offering complete protection against the cold, while others use a thermal body without sleeves, covering only the torso. The lining can be either fixed or removable, allowing the jacket to be adapted for warmer weather or different riding conditions. There are also jackets without any thermal lining, either because they are specifically designed for summer use, prioritizing comfort and ventilation, or because they rely solely on the outer material and any additional insulation.

Shoulder protectors significantly enhance the safety of a motorcycle jacket. They are designed to absorb impact on the shoulders in the event of a fall or collision. They come in different protection levels: level 1 protectors are thinner and more flexible, providing comfort during wear, while level 2 protectors offer more impact absorption and protection, but are generally thicker and stiffer. Shoulder protectors are always included in a CE-approved jacket, and in some models, they can also be removed or replaced for added flexibility.

Elbow protectors contribute to the overall safety of a motorcycle jacket. They are designed to absorb impact on the elbows in the event of a fall or collision. They come in different protection levels: level 1 protectors are thinner and more flexible, providing comfort during wear, while level 2 protectors offer more impact absorption and protection, but are generally thicker and stiffer. Elbow protectors are always included in a CE-approved jacket, and in some models, they can also be removed or replaced for added flexibility.
