The Funky Lady might bring back some funky memories, but here it's mainly a smooth buffalo leather jacket with a nod to the first decades of motorcycle clothing. Although you also get a lot of contemporary features in this feminine cut motorcycle jacket.
Segura may love the neo-retro style, but it's still important to bring modern motorcycle jackets to the market. Back then, they didn't have the 90-gram thermal lining - removable of course. You will soon, and it gives the Funky Lady 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 excesses are not really your thing. Leather and water also remain tricky in a Funky Lady 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 Lady will pleasantly surprise you on many occasions. As funky ladies often do.
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 style is what we're talking about here, less than the other thing. The Funky is 'body fit', which amounts to a short motorcycle jacket with some leeway. It doesn't have to feel like second skin, you can have some breath left and a sweater more or less won't matter.
There’s impact protection, 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 finish in neoprene, the sleeve ends and waist are three snaps away from a perfect fit and there is enough volume with the Funky Lady of Segura. In a fun way.
Five pockets on the outside, all zippered, provide more storage than you usually find in a motorcycle jacket of this type. And three more pockets on the inside. Altogether, that results in a CE-certification, and a certification as EN 1621-1: 2013, EN 17092 class AAA - safety material.
Combine this with a good pair of jeans, a café racer and coffee somewhere.
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.
