I have this and love it. It’s expensive but will hopefully outlast me….

You can do safer with EN 13595 from BKS Made-To-Measure
No doubt but it does come at a cost.I’d probably go Astars airbag and a suitable AAA jacket (zipped to equivalent leather jeans) if I was throwing money at ultimate safety.

Have a look on the sportsbike shop website.They have a good filter function on their website, select the filters that match your needs and see what’s available.
I just ran a quick search for Leather, heritage style, full zip, unisex and it pulled up this (amongst others) which matches some other suggestions on here and seems to be along the lines of what you’re after? And at a fraction of the price too.

I have a Rev'It! CR leather jacket in black. Not sure if they are still made but ticks all your boxes, and being a Dutch firm their sizing is more realistic than the Italians.
+1 for Rev it. Stupid name & some of their stuff comes with child like logos/colour schemes, but decent quality, VFM, & good fit.Gassing Station | Biker Banter | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
