Verified Customer Reviews for Oxford Holborn Jacket
Well made and great fit
10 August 2025 by Roland N
I have had another Oxford jacket with the same fabric for 10 years. It is still good but I fancied a new jacket and bought this different style. It fits well and feels good quality. It’s nice and cheap too! I am sure it will last just a long. Very highly recommended for a light jacket.

Good quality casual jacket at a great price
04 August 2025 by Lee
This is a nice casual jacket with a mild retro feel, good sturdy feel without reducing movement. This jacket was a great price for what it is, fortunately Sportsbikeshop were spot on with a hefty price reduction. Bargain!

Description
The Holborn jacket features a dry wax finish, quilting at the shoulder and elbows and rolled reflective details. The jacket's 13.5 oz. cotton outer shell features a high tenacity polyamide yarn to the weave for increased abrasion and tear resistance, ensuring the jacket sails through CE class A certification. A dry wax coating gives the fabric its signature classic waxed look, a waterproof membrane with fully taped seams provides peace of mind for riders who find themselves caught out in a rainy spell.
