689H - Horsehide Black Racer Motorcycle Leather Jacket
The verdict
Fit
Racer jackets are fitted, not roomy. Horsehide is stiff initially and will mold to the body over months of wear. Expect a snug chest and arm fit.
Quality
1065 USD for horsehide is not exorbitant—horsehide is one of the most durable hides available and develops character rapidly. This is premium leather terrain.
Price check
Expensive, but horsehide and racer construction are expensive materials and labor. Fair pricing for the tier; not a casual purchase.
Best for
Motorcycle riders and leather jacket collectors valuing horsehide durability and the racer silhouette.
Care
Condition with leather balm regularly. Horsehide ages beautifully but requires maintenance. Never machine wash; dry-clean if necessary.

What owners report about Naked & Famous jackets & outerwear
Coverage of this jacket line comes mainly from denim-enthusiast editorial and owner fade reports rather than mass retail reviews. A year-long owner wear report on the brand's stretch denim jacket found it molded to the wearer's frame and developed strong creasing and fading through heavy touring use. Editors place the brand's jackets in the mid tier of denim jackets and note the range spans light 9 oz. fabrics up to heavy 20 oz. novelty denim, with heritage styles cut to a vintage fit that is boxier and shorter than contemporary offerings.
- Strengths
- Reviewers report a wide fabric range and denim that creases, molds, and fades distinctively with sustained wear.
- Watch out for
- Heritage-style jackets run boxy and short by modern standards, and fabric weights vary so much across the line that two jackets can wear like completely different garments.
- Sizing
- Expect vintage proportions on the heritage jackets — boxier and shorter than contemporary trucker cuts — so compare garment measurements rather than assuming your usual jacket fit.
