10 Sleek & Chic Racer Jackets That Embody Fashion’s Moto Trend

The boxy, retro shape of this style makes it the perfect topper for crisp, wide-leg jeans and a pair of creepers.

Just the thing to buy if you want the sleek, sexy shape of a motocross-inspired piece but none of the flashy stripes and logos.

Racer jacket, but make it denim! If you’re the type of person who fills their closet with Ulla Johnson and Dôen, consider this your entry point to the moto moment.

If a biker jacket and racer bomber had a love child, I imagine it would look something like this. This design, of course, looks fantastic with denim, but you can also play up its edginess by wearing softer fabric on your lower half, like satin or velvet.

For a more playful take on the silhouette, try it in a less expected color like lime green. This one also comes in a pretty fabulous sky blue shade, and both designs have a matching pant and skirt option.

The little flare at the bottom of this design is such a small detail, but it makes a major impact. It’d be a particularly nice way to enhance a fuller skirt worn underneath.

If you want a sultry, streamlined leather look, but prefer to go faux, this little cropped number fits the bill.

Pro tip: If you’re looking for something that feels one-of-kind secondhand sites like Depop are a rich source for racer jackets (here’s another hidden gem).

Because black is the more expected color choice for this particular piece, an artfully washed out brown alternative feels so unexpected and cool.

Move over, going out tops. Going out jackets, like this corset-like number, may just be the wave of the future.
