Motorcycle hoodies are fast becoming a popular item in many riders' wardrobes. They are quick to put on, offer more protection than a standard sweatshirt or casual hoodie and allow you to still dress casual when you don’t want or need to look like a biker.

Poly Cotton Blend Fabric
The Cruise Missile hoodie has an outer shell made from a 65% cotton 35% polyester blend that is thick enough to provide a decent layer of extra warmth making it a great option for cooler weather riding. The polyester adds a level of durability to the hoodie by way of being more abrasion and cut resistant than 100% cotton alone. The inner lining is 100% polyester sports mesh that works to draw moisture way from your body while proving a soft finish.
