Double Riders Jacket x Tied-up Shirt x Jersey Slacks Style
The lapel design of the double riders jacket also functions as a windbreaker. When worn with a tied-up shirt, the rider’s jacket can be worn like a tailored jacket. If you want to combine a dressy look with a functional aspect, slacks made of jersey fabric are a strong choice. Match them with moderately sporty Cheenie external-blade plain-toes on the feet.

Minimalist rider’s jacket x turtleneck with a crisp material feel
The minimalist design of the Vanson x 417 Edifice double riders jacket is mixed with a turtleneck sweater for a softer look. The combination of black and white, but the difference in the texture of the materials gives it a mature and sexy look.

Leather Riders Jacket & White Pleated Pants Style
The Manila rider’s jacket is one of James Groth’s most popular classic models. Its spacious silhouette and elegant design that doesn’t insist too much on the front meeting are appealing. The Manila is paired with white double-pleated pants to create a crisp monotone style. Although it is tempting to style the rider’s jacket in black for a chic look, pairing it with a roomy pair of white pants gives it a fresh and modern atmosphere with a relaxed feel. The use of neutral gray throughout creates a comfortable styling that is not too aggressive.

Riders Jacket x Scarf x Black Jeans Style
Compared to the double-layer jacket, the single-layer rider’s jacket gives a smart impression. Because of its simple design, the high quality of the material and skillful sewing techniques are truly apparent. If you feel the jacket is lacking in quality compared to a double-breasted jacket, you can add a scarf around the neck for an elegant touch. A thick wallet chain can be worn with slim black jeans to maintain a rugged look.
