In line with tradition and expectations, the Funky is a smooth buffalo leather motorcycle jacket with a nod to the first decades of motorcycle clothing. Although you immediately get a whole host of contemporary features as well.
Segura may love the neo-retro style, but it is still important to bring modern motorcycle jackets to the market. At least they didn't have the 90 gram thermal lining - removable of course - back then. You will soon, and it gives the Funky a much greater range. The exterior in the characteristic smooth buffalo leather and the fixed mesh lining together provide a range that is fairly all-round. Provided that the excesses are not really your thing. Leather and water also remain tricky in a Funky and the absence of many ventilation options might make high summer just a little too hot. Apart from that: leather is and remains a top natural material, the fixed mesh lining is a climate regulator and the Funky will pleasantly surprise you on many occasions.
The white stripes, the zippers and the use of a number of highly visible push buttons ... this is as much a style choice as anything else. And we're talking less about style here than anything else. The Funky is 'body fit', which amounts to a short motorcycle jacket with some leeway. It doesn't have to feel like a second skin, you can have some breath left and a sweater more or less won't matter.
Impact protection is there too, in the form of OMEGA shoulder protectors and ditto, adjustable, elbow protectors. Fitting a CE-certified back protector is optional, but possible.
It all feels very comfortable, that's an open door. The collar got a neoprene finish, the sleeve ends and waist are adjustable with three snaps and the Funky from Segura is a sturdy one. In a fun way.
Five pockets on the outside, all zippered, provide more storage space than you usually find in a motorcycle jacket of this type. And three more pockets on the inside. All together that results in a CE-certification, and a certification as EN 1621-1: 2013, EN 17092 class AAA - safety material.
Combine it with a good pair of jeans, a café racer and a terrace.
There is maintenance clothing and then there is clothing maintenance. Good, solid motorcycle clothing is an investment in comfort and personal safety. So invest in its maintenance after your purchase and enjoy your gear for longer.
