Standard jackets are a dime a dozen, arenât they? Off-the-rack styles can be seen walking down the street on virtually anybody. None of them really stand out or display any type of personality whatsoever. At the same time, they fall miserably short of exhibiting all the aspects that truly make you unique. Designing a jacket capable of shattering the run-of-the-mill stereotype takes passion and creativity typical manufacturers just donât have.
At American Legend Rider, weâre here to help you make a break from the norm with a broad selection of jackets for men and women that are sure to let your unique personality shine through. Each one is distinctly designed with the needs and hearts of bikers in mind. Because of this, our 2019 jacket lineup encompasses some of the most universal characteristics of the biker community.
Winter doesnât quite mean the same thing for every country or even every corner of the United States. While the northeast may experience extreme cold, the south might barely see any frigid weather at all. Elsewhere, Siberian winds send winter temperatures well below the freezing mark. Either way, our jackets are perfect for every season whether youâre on the road or simply waiting for more ride-friendly weather.
Feel free to check out our jackets and other exclusive biker gear, including helmets, vests, footwear, tees and tanks and womenâs leather pants to name a few. Our prices are shown in USD, and clothing ranges from small to plus sizes based on American sizing standards.

Being a biker takes on a wide range of meanings for different people. To some, itâs simply owning and riding a motorcycle. Others believe it means being a member of a rough, headline-making gang. Those who hold fast to those opinions simply lack understanding.
For the most part, the term âbikerâ refers more to a state of mind than appearance. Contrary to popular belief, it doesnât necessarily mean being a rebel. Tattoos, smoldering hostility and hairstyles like pigtail braids and pompadours have very little to do with the actual biker persona. Theyâre media-driven labels those on the outside mistakenly take for reality.
As opposed to what some people might tell you, being a biker doesnât even have anything to do with whether or not you choose to wear a helmet where laws allow otherwise. Itâs not based on being able to change gears smoothly on a new Harley. None of those elements really matter in the grand scheme of things.
Actual definitions of bikers hold no specific bounds and certainly have no narrow-minded parameters. According to the dictionary, a biker is simply someone who rides a motorcycle. While thatâs certainly a necessary piece of the puzzle, itâs only the tip of the iceberg. Not all who ride qualify as bikers. Some are simply motorcyclists.
An unbreakable bond exists in the biker community. Itâs truly a brotherhood, and those who live by its code are in a class all their own. Seasoned veterans of the community welcome newcomers with open arms and show them the ropes. No one has to work hard at fitting in; being part of the club is as simple as showing respect to others. Everyone is united in an always-help-your-fellow-man state of mind, and no one is left out of the mix.
Some motorcycle clubs have their own requirements in this department. Theyâre devoted to specific manufacturers whether they be Harley, Honda, Indian, Yamaha or another brand. Generally speaking, though, they consider riders of any model part of the brotherhood and wonât turn up their noses at a fellow biker simply because of the emblem on his or her bike.
No one is barred from the biker community because of what they do for a living or how much income it generates. Whether a person has the financial means to purchase a brand new, top-of-the-line bike every year and the latest gear to hit the market or can barely afford to fill the tank for the next ride, theyâre treated with the same level of warmth and respect.
Not everyone can ride a bike all the time. Motorcycles arenât the best forms of transportation when it comes to buying groceries or being part of the elementary school carpool roster. True bikers fully understand riding sometimes has to be a part-time adventurer. As long as you remain true to the Brotherhood state of mind, you wonât be ousted because of how often you ride.
Black leather has become synonymous with the biker community over the last several decades. From jackets and vests to chaps and boots, menswear and womenâs biker attire routinely revolve around this natural, durable material. Though it offers ample protection, makes a perfect canvas for patches and happens to look good, itâs not actually a requirement.
Dressing for the ride isnât about making a fashion statement. Itâs a matter of covering yourself and being protected from the elements. Having an extra layer between you and the road (or you and the bike as the case may be) should you go down is also crucial.
Jackets and long pants are standard protocol no matter what type of material theyâre made of. Shorts are never a good idea when riding unless theyâre worn underneath a full set of chaps. Ask a seasoned biker what type of footwear he or she recommends, and the answer will inevitably be boots. Flip flops just donât cut it, and sneakers almost always come off ridersâ feet when they crash.
All this brings us to the expansive selection of designer clothing, protective gear, and accessories here at American Legend Rider. From helmets to footwear and everything in between, we have you covered from head to toe and beyond.
