It’s not uncommon to see sports and fashion intersect, like with athleisure wear — just look at the many celebs rocking the haute sport trend, where sportswear is made luxe, and Louis Vuitton's court-inspired collection.

One popular piece of sportswear that has been making waves in the fashion world is none other than the racing jacket — typically worn by competitive motorsport riders (this includes motorbike, bicycle, motocross and autosport) when racing. Traditionally crafted from leather, these jackets are usually emblazoned with the logos of their numerous sponsors, making it quite the fashion statement as well.

If you rummage through a thrift store, you may be able to find yourself one, but these coveted vintage jackets are often either snatched up too quick, or retail for eye-bulging prices. So, we've gone ahead and done the dirty work for you, putting together a list of our fave designs. We made sure to include options that are suitable for wear on our sunny shores too, with fabrics like PU, nylon and fabric.

Whether you’re a motorsport purist who wants one straight from the NASCAR archives or you just like the look of it, there should at least be one that gets your heart racing. And if you're one who leans towards the men's fit for that desired slouchy yet structured look, we've included a couple from the men's side too.
