LEWIS LEATHERS

About Me

Lewis Leathers are Britains oldest motorcycle clothing brand. Founded in 1892 as D Lewis Ltd, we began manufacturing purpose-built motorcycle racing leathers as far back as 1926 along with flying gear for early civil aviators and Government agencies throughout the world, during WW2 we supplied the RAF. Lewis Leathers jackets & products are synonymous with both motorcycling and British Rock & Roll history, worn by Champion TT Riders like Derek Minter, Mike Hailwood, John Surtees & Giacomo Agostini, English Rockers such as London's 59 Club and the Double Zero from Birmingham and Punk Rock bands including the Sex Pistols, Clash, Ramones and Iggy, even John Lennon & Paul McCartney were owners! Lewis Leathers classic jackets are still produced in England to this day. CLICK HERE FOR:LEWIS LEATHERS.COM ----- LEWIS LEATHERS JAPAN ----- JAPAN STAFF BLOG ---------------
