I’ve been not-so-quietly obsessing over Aether Apparel’s Arrow Motorcycle Jacket since it launched. It’s expensive (and looks it) but also a pretty ridiculously sexy AND protective motorbike jacket that wouldn’t look out of place going out for a night on the town. Did I say it’s expensive? Like the list price on my helmet isn’t as high (and my Shoei GT-Air isn’t one of the cheap lids).

It’s on sale. Right now. For 40% off Aether’s list price and 53% off what other retailers have it listed at. I tried to convince myself that I don’t need more motorbike gear. So naturally that means I just pulled the trigger and ordered it. Stay tuned for a first impressions post with photos in the not-too-far-off-future!
