Men’s Perforated Leather Biker Vest SWAT Style Motorcycle Tactical Vest Blu line

The Blacktop Gear SWAT Style Perforated Leather Biker Vest is a men's tactical motorcycle vest in soft naked cowhide, with a perforated decorative panel sewn into the centre and a matching sublimated paisley lining. Available in blue or red. Roll-up racing collar, hidden snap closure over a centre YKK zip, and two concealed carry pockets. Handmade to order in sizes S to 6XL at $160, with free delivery within the USA.

Design & Build

The base is black naked cowhide, soft-touch, full grain, no heavy surface coating. Sewn into the centre panel is a perforated leather insert in blue or red, which does two things at once: it breaks up the black visually, and it lets air move through the front of the vest. That airflow is the difference between a vest you can wear through a summer rally and one that comes off at the first fuel stop.

The collar rolls up racing-style, so you can wear it flat for the tactical look or turned up against wind at speed. The front closes with a centre YKK zip under a hidden snap placket, the snaps keep the storm flap flat so there is no zip line breaking the front, which is what gives this vest its clean SWAT silhouette.

Inside, the paisley lining is sublimated rather than printed on top, so the pattern will not crack or peel. Two concealed carry pockets sit on the left and right with retention straps and snap buttons, so the vest works for either draw hand.

Specifications

Who buys this vest

• Warm-climate riders, the perforated centre panel moves air where a solid vest traps it
• Concealed carry permit holders, two pockets with retention straps, left and right
• Riders who want colour without going loud, black base with a single blue or red accent reads sharp rather than flashy

How riders wear it

Black base means it works over almost anything, plain tee, dark denim, boots. Pick the accent colour to match your bike or your club colours. Collar down for the clean tactical look, collar up once you are moving.

Frequently asked questions

What colours does this vest come in?
Blue or red. The base leather is black in both; the perforated centre panel and the paisley lining change colour together.

Does perforated leather actually keep you cooler?
Yes. The perforations let air pass through the panel instead of trapping it against your body. The rest of the vest stays solid leather, so you keep the structure and abrasion resistance.

How does it close?
A centre YKK zip under a hidden snap placket. The snaps hold the flap flat so no zip line shows on the front.

What is a roll-up racing collar?
A collar that sits flat for a clean look or turns up to block wind at speed, you get both without buying two vests.

Does it have concealed carry pockets?
Yes, two, one on each side, with retention straps and snap buttons, so it works for either draw hand.

Will the paisley lining crack or peel?
No. The pattern is sublimated into the lining rather than printed on top of it.

Can I add club patches to the back?
Yes. The back panel is patch-ready.

What sizes does it come in?
S through 6XL as standard, or built to your own measurements at no design charge.

How long does a made-to-order vest take?
2 to 3 weeks from order confirmation.

Where is it made?
Blacktop Gear is a US brand. Every piece is designed in the USA and handmade in our own factory rather than outsourced to a third-party manufacturer, which is how we control the leather grade and the stitching on every order. Delivery within the USA is free.
