Explore the iconic Yoshimura Vintage Coveralls: pure white workwear from the 70's race team, now reissued for paddock style and practical use.
Quick answer
The Yoshimura Vintage Coveralls bring back the iconic pure white race-team look from the 70's, offering a blend of paddock style and practical workwear for riders and collectors.
Why pure white?
The Vintage Coveralls are only available in Pure White, a deliberate nod to the Yoshimura race team's paddock dress code from the 60's and 70's. It's not just about aesthetics—white reflects heat and keeps you cooler under the sun, but it also shows dirt easily, so be prepared for regular cleaning.
What about sizing?
The coveralls are offered in a single size option (Choose a Size), which means you'll need to check the size chart carefully. They are designed to fit a range of body types, but if you're between sizes or prefer a looser fit for layering, consider sizing up. The one-color, one-cut approach keeps the vintage authenticity but limits adjustability.
Frequently asked questions
- What is the material and construction?
- The coveralls are made from a durable cotton blend that holds up to light work and riding. The fabric is breathable but not waterproof, so it's best for dry conditions.
- How do I care for white coveralls?
- Machine wash cold with like colors, use a mild detergent, and avoid bleach to prevent yellowing. Hang dry to preserve the fabric and fit. Pre-treat grease stains with a dab of dish soap before washing. Stain treatment before washing is key for white fabric.
- Can I wear them for actual motorcycle riding?
- Yes, they work well as paddock wear or for short rides, but they lack armor or abrasion-resistant panels. For high-speed or long-distance riding, layer them over proper protective gear or use dedicated riding suits. Not a substitute for full riding armor on the road.
- Are they true to vintage sizing?
- The fit is inspired by 70's workwear, which tends to be roomier in the body and shorter in the arms compared to modern slim fits. Check the size chart and consider layering if you're between sizes. Expect a classic, relaxed cut rather than a modern athletic fit.
Product facts
