Wayne Rainey 1983 Vintage Kawasaki Jacket

A 1980s Kawasaki on a modern jacket

The colour blocking is Kawasaki green and white, from Rainey's 1983 Kawasaki race leathers, so it works for riders who like the older liveries more than the current team look. It is our own design inspired by that look and is not made or endorsed by the team, rider or manufacturer.

Leather and protection

The cowhide is drum-dyed and milled, so it feels soft. Pre-curved sleeves suit a sport riding position, and seams are safety stitched. Inside, removable CE Level 1 armour (EN 1621-1) covers the shoulders and elbows, and a back pocket takes an optional EN 1621-2 back protector. CE Level 2 is a paid upgrade.

Which Kawasaki jacket

If you want a modern Kawasaki team look, compare the Kawasaki Racing Team jacket from 2023. The 2008 style is the Red Bull Kawasaki Ninja jacket. Everything is in the Kawasaki jackets range.
