With its striking red exterior and sharply arranged four-pocket front, the Kilcreggan red leather café racer jacket brings a confident change of pace to the collection. A compact snap-tab collar, straight centre zip and dark contrasting hardware keep the look disciplined rather than overstated.
Design & Character
The jacket follows a clean waist-length silhouette with defined shoulder panels, sculpted front seams and a straight stitched hem. Two horizontal chest zips sit above two vertical zipped hand pockets, creating a balanced, recognisable racer design. At the back, a neat shoulder yoke and lengthwise panels add shape without quilting or bulky decoration.
Leather Appearance & Construction
The bright red outer has a smooth-looking surface with a soft lustre and visible folds through the sleeves and torso. Slight variations in tone give the colour depth under studio lighting. The contrasting black zip tapes and dark metallic-looking pulls sharpen the front. The precise leather type, grade and lining fibre are not confirmed by the photographs.
Functional Details
A central full-length zipper fastens beneath the short stand collar, which closes with a snap tab. Four front zipped pockets provide the jacket’s signature detail. Zipped cuffs with snap tabs complete the sleeves, while the narrow, non-ribbed hem maintains a tidy finish.
Styling & Versatility
Let the red jacket lead the outfit with a black roll-neck and tailored dark trousers, or wear it over a simple white tee with dark denim. Browse our men’s café racer jackets or the wider men’s leather jackets collection for other colours and silhouettes.

How to measure
Take your measurements correctly
Use a soft measuring tape and keep it level without pulling it tight. Measure the chest around the fullest part with the tape passing under the arms, and the sleeve from the shoulder point down to the wrist with the arm relaxed at your side.
