The new Ashley Watson Eversholt motorcycle jacket has been designed from the ground up as a modern protective jacket, with thoroughly classic styling, that’d likely appeal to everyone from T.E. Lawrence to Freddie Frith.
Each Eversholt is made in England with an outer shell constructed from 8oz waxed canvas, under that there’s a seam sealed drop liner that’s both waterproof and breathable, with storm guards at the neck and cuff to keep you dry no matter the weather.
