This MODEKA Braker is a motorcycle hoodie in a typical anorak style and a sporty appearance. Young, intended for an urban context with the option to go somewhere after your ride is over, for the better hooligan style riding on an MT-07 or any other muscular naked bike.
A motorcycle hoodie like this MODEKA Braker has all the features and functionalities of a full-worthy motorcycle jacket. It’s just doesn’t always look like that. That’s precisely what makes this Braker ideal for flaunting in the shopping mall, or to go for ice cream after you’ve safely parked your motorcycle in the shade of the church steeple. Few will recognise this attire as full-fledged motorcycle gear. On a good day, however, this will take you lots of places – and let’s be fair – the price is no issue either.
The softshell exterior of the Braker radiates comfort and the detachable hood allows some adaptations. Underneath, aramid warrants the required wear and tear resistance, while the supplied shoulder and elbow protectors do as they are told when time is due. It is possible to add an optional back protector.
The most remarkable features are the kangaroo pouch in the front and the long vertical zipper on the side, running all the way from the waist up to the armpit. This prevents a bulging effect when you’re ready to shift into first and – even better – this even allows you to put on your motorcycle helmet before putting on the Braker; or just about. In any way, it provides the right amount of flexibility and lots of comfort, two things embodied by the Braker. By the way: the storage pouch in the front is quite sizable.
The Braker is a fun motorcycle jacket for those who don’t really like motorcycle jackets. Obviously, this is no expert – mesh jackets, world travellers and racing suits each cover their own field and expertise – but that is exactly why this is so versatile and the perfect solution when it’s time to go.
This motorcycle jacket is best combined with motorcycle jeans pants.
