Product Details
The Dainese Racing 4 Men's Perforated Leather Motorcycle Jacket is a close-fitting sports jacket for warm-weather road riding. This Black / Black version combines perforated Tutu cowhide with Dainese stretch technologies, certified impact protection and aluminium shoulder plates for riders who want the feel and protection of leather with increased airflow.
Its athletic cut is designed to sit close to the body. S1 bi-elastic fabric and Microelastic 2.0 leather inserts help the jacket follow the rider's movement, while adjustment at the neck and waist allows the fit to be refined. The perforated construction is intended for warmer, drier conditions and should not be treated as waterproof motorcycle clothing.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Racing 4 Perf waterproof?
No. Its perforated leather construction is intended to increase ventilation, so it is best suited to warmer, dry riding conditions.
Which protectors are supplied?
Certified composite shoulder and elbow protectors are fitted. The optional Dainese back and Double Chest protectors are sold separately.
Can it connect to motorcycle trousers?
Yes. It has a jacket-to-trousers connection zip, and Dainese identifies the Delta 4 Perf Leather Trousers as the matching perforated trousers for this jacket.
Is the fit relaxed?
No. Racing 4 uses a close, athletic sports cut. Allow for the base layer and any optional chest or back protector you intend to wear when choosing a size.
Moto Central fitting guidance
A leather motorcycle jacket should hold its protectors securely in position without restricting normal riding movement. If you are unsure between sizes, Moto Central can help compare your measurements with Dainese's chart or assess the fit at our Wolvey, Leicestershire showroom.
