Heavyweight 1990s leather biker jacket from Hein Gericke, part of the Classic Gear line, featuring authentic “Fifty Nine Club” embroidery on both the chest and the interior pocket.

  The 59 Club (also known as The Fifty Nine Club or “The 9”) originated in London in 1959 and became one of the most iconic institutions of British motorcycle culture, closely associated with rockers, café racer style, and rock ’n’ roll heritage. Its symbolism represents freedom, community, and the rebellious spirit that defined classic European biker culture.

  This jacket carries that heritage forward through design, construction, and weight — not as a fashion reference, but as a true motorcycle-grade garment.

  Crafted from thick, high-quality leather with a smooth, dense surface and natural grain, the hide shows characteristics consistent with full-grain or high-grade top-grain leather, built for durability, wind resistance, and long-term wear. The substantial 2.4 kg weight confirms this is proper riding leather, not lightweight fashion leather.

The Fit:

• Labeled size 54 — best fits men’s size L, XL.

• Structured shoulders with a classic biker cut and a defined waist.
