Additional Information:
In the early 1950s, a unique Swedish Dispatch Motorcycle 'Prototype' Jacket made its debut. Constructed from robust cotton fabric, this jacket served as an economical and warmer substitute for conventional leather dispatch jackets. Surprisingly, it never saw widespread production. Just a few years later, a fresh design surfaced in forest green cotton, featuring a detachable synthetic liner, further enhancing cost-effectiveness and suitability as a jacket choice.
