les motocyclettistes

pierre girard, the head behind the french label les motocyclettistes, is truly a passionate motorcycle rider. the shiny asphalt, the roar of the engines, the wind and the rain slapping against your jacket ... it's not about getting from a to b, it's about the exhilarating feeling of discovering the world on a motorcycle. it's about adventure, passion, lifestyle, ... and it's exactly this emotionality that you can feel in the jackets of les motocyclettistes. pierre perfectly combines functionality, aesthetics and highest quality. inspired by american and british motorcycle jackets from the 1930s to the 1960s, pierre designed a small, fine collection that is manufactured in japan and france by exceptional craftsmen. of course, this has its price, and some people say, slightly mockingly, that the jackets would cost more than the motorcycle on which they sit. maybe, but the jackets are likely to last longer than the bike.
