Rokker Canvas motorcycle jacket review
We like the Rokker Canvas jacket, introduced for the 2024 season. The jacket resembles, although it’s not a stitch-for-stitch replica of, the US navy N1 deck jacket.
It’s made from an abrasion-resistant fabric that comprises a mix of Cordura and canvas. This is much like the duck-canvas material you’d find on a Dickies or a Carhartt jacket or pant. So whilst the material is pliable and soft, there’s a slightly rougher texture to the exterior of the fabric.
This is very much one of those motorcycle jackets that doesn’t look like a motorcycle jacket. Indeed, remove the armour, and you’ve got yourself a cool-looking, ‘going-out’ jacket. The jacket’s got a kind of plaid lining, and it’s lightly wadded for a bit of added warmth. There's no membrane involved, however, so don't expect it to be waterproof.
The detailing is pretty plain. A corduroy-lined collar. Two side pockets. One upper one. Adjustable cuffs and hem. A cover over the base of the zip. That’s as simple as a bike jacket gets.
Rokker claim that the jacket is water resistant, but we take that with a pinch of salt. The jacket has a waterproofing coating, but that will wash off over time. The jacket is rated AA for abrasion resistance under EN17092, which is what one might hope for. It comes supplied with SAS-tec armour in the elbows and shoulders. We would have preferred D3O, but you can’t always have what you want. There’s a pocket for a back protector.
In conclusion; a really cool jacket. It’s so nice you really don’t need a bike to look good in it.
