BMW Motorrad Australia is pleased to announce the arrival of the all new motorcycling jackets designed and made by British clothing company Belstaff and is available exclusively through Southbank Motorcycles in Melbourne.

The roots of the classic British fashion label, established in 1924, lie in adrenaline, craftsmanship and speed. Common origins and the passionate pursuit of perfection have now brought the two brands together.

BMW Motorrad and Belstaff are presenting the fruits of their first collaboration: a special collection of jackets to go with the premium BMW R nineT anniversary model. With the use of high-grade materials, the line-up of Belstaff's 'Pure Motorcycle' jackets reflect the mindset of the BMW R nineT to forge a perfect blend of tradition and innovation.

Legendary cuts, drawn from several eras of motorcycle fashion, have been given a fresh take. The special collection comprises eight jackets - two for women and six for men. They are close-fitting and dynamic, and range from short, feminine jackets with vertical pockets to waisted long jackets with patch flap pockets.

Depending on the model, the material is either leather or hand-waxed cotton, the subtle sheen and stylish cut exuding premium quality. Wax cotton is breathable and offers freedom of movement while being extremely durable, waterproof and windproof. Leather, on the other hand, boasts very high abrasion resistance, offers safety and wearer comfort, and is robust and weatherproof.

This special collection is identified by a vintage-look BMW emblem on the inside of the jacket.

The exclusive Australian retailer of this exciting range is Southbank Motorcycles, situated in Melbourne.
