BMW Pro Race Jacket

June 11, 2008

A jacket that costs 500 notes needs to offer something that lesser jackets can't. BMW have called on their boffins to create a fancy piece of technology for their Pro Race gear. The jacket is made of a special type of leather, which they claim deflects the strong rays of sunlight.

They claim it's up to 12 degrees cooler than standard black leather gear. One small detail though, they forgot to put pockets on the outside. Poor really, but there are a couple on the inside. And you can get the trousers to match if you want to make a race suit.

Cost: £500
