Age of Glory Escape Waxed Cotton Motorcycle Jacket – Green

Authentic Workwear Heritage. Rugged Waxed Cotton. CE AA Motorcycle Protection.

The Age of Glory Escape Waxed Cotton Motorcycle Jacket in Green combines the rugged character of traditional workwear with modern motorcycle protection. Inspired by vintage utility clothing and classic motorcycle culture, the Escape Jacket delivers an authentic heritage appearance without compromising on the protective features expected from contemporary riding equipment.

Constructed from heavyweight waxed cotton canvas with premium suede detailing, the Escape has the substantial feel and distinctive appearance of a traditional workwear jacket. Beneath its understated exterior, however, lies a carefully considered combination of motorcycle-specific features, including CE Level 2 shoulder and elbow protectors, a protective membrane and a removable full quilted lining.

Certified to EN 17092-2:2020 Class AA, the Escape Jacket provides a recognised level of motorcycle garment protection while retaining the versatility and timeless appeal of everyday casual clothing.

Finished with antique brass metal buttons, a smooth satin lining and practical internal storage, it's a jacket designed for riders who appreciate authentic materials, purposeful detailing and clothing that looks just as good away from the motorcycle.

DESIGN & INSPIRATION

The Escape Jacket takes its inspiration from traditional workwear, where durability, practicality and simplicity were fundamental to good design.

Classic utility jackets were originally created for demanding everyday environments, using substantial fabrics, functional pockets and carefully considered construction. Their appeal came from their honest materials and purposeful appearance rather than unnecessary decoration.

Age of Glory has carried this philosophy into the Escape, combining the character of vintage workwear with the requirements of modern motorcycle riding.

The heavy waxed cotton canvas creates a rugged, traditional silhouette, while suede accents and antique brass hardware introduce subtle contrasts in texture and finish.

In green, the Escape has a particularly versatile appearance, pairing effortlessly with motorcycle jeans, heritage boots and classic riding accessories.

It's a jacket with a strong sense of identity, equally suited to a café racer, scrambler or modern classic motorcycle.

HEAVYWEIGHT WAXED COTTON CANVAS

The foundation of the Escape Jacket is its heavyweight waxed cotton outer shell.

Waxed cotton has a long history in motorcycle clothing, workwear and outdoor equipment, valued for its robust character and ability to provide resistance against the elements.

The wax treatment gives the canvas its distinctive surface finish and helps resist light moisture, while the substantial fabric contributes to the jacket's traditional, rugged appearance.

Unlike lightweight fashion fabrics, heavy waxed cotton has a reassuringly substantial feel that suits the Escape's workwear-inspired design.

Over time, waxed cotton can develop variations in texture and appearance through normal use, adding to the individual character of the garment.

The black finish gives the material a particularly understated appearance, making the jacket easy to combine with both traditional and contemporary motorcycle clothing.

Please note: Waxed cotton is naturally water-repellent, but this should not be confused with a guarantee of complete waterproofing.

CE AA CERTIFIED MOTORCYCLE PROTECTION

Although the Escape looks like a traditional workwear jacket, it has been developed and certified as protective motorcycle clothing.

The jacket is CE and UKCA certified to EN 17092-2:2020, Class AA.

EN 17092 is the European standard used to assess protective garments for motorcycle riders, with classifications based on testing that includes abrasion resistance, seam strength and structural performance.

Class AA represents a higher protective classification than Class A, while retaining a practical balance between protection, comfort and everyday usability.

This makes the Escape particularly appealing to riders who want recognised motorcycle garment protection without the overtly technical appearance of conventional riding equipment.

LEVEL 2 SHOULDER & ELBOW ARMOUR INCLUDED

The Escape Jacket is supplied with CE Level 2 shoulder and elbow protectors, certified to EN 1621-1.

These protectors are designed to help reduce the force transmitted to vulnerable areas in the event of an impact.

Level 2 protectors meet more demanding transmitted-force requirements than Level 1 protectors under the relevant standard.

Included Protection

• CE Level 2 shoulder protectors

• CE Level 2 elbow protectors

• Removable armour for added versatility

The removable design allows the jacket to be worn with its protective inserts for riding and offers greater flexibility when the garment is being used away from the motorcycle.

Back protection: A back protector is not specified as included. Riders requiring additional back protection should check compatibility with suitable protective equipment.

PROTECTIVE MEMBRANE

The Escape Jacket incorporates a protective membrane as part of its layered construction.

Working alongside the waxed cotton outer shell, the membrane provides an additional barrier against the elements, making the jacket more versatile in changing riding conditions.

This combination is particularly useful for riders who appreciate the appearance of traditional waxed cotton but want the practical benefits of a more contemporary garment construction.

The supplied specifications do not state a waterproof rating or breathability figure, so the jacket should not be assumed to be fully waterproof.

REMOVABLE FULL QUILTED LINING

One of the Escape Jacket's most useful features is its removable full quilted lining.

The quilted layer provides additional insulation for cooler riding conditions, helping make the jacket suitable for a wider range of temperatures.

When the weather becomes milder, the lining can be removed to reduce insulation and create a lighter wearing experience.

This adaptable construction makes the Escape a practical option for riders who want a single heritage-style motorcycle jacket that can accommodate different seasonal conditions.

The removable lining also enhances the jacket's versatility away from the motorcycle.

PREMIUM SUEDE DETAILS

The Escape Jacket features carefully considered suede detailing, introducing a subtle contrast against the substantial waxed cotton canvas.

Suede adds a softer, more refined texture to the jacket's otherwise rugged construction, reinforcing its premium workwear character.

These details reflect Age of Glory's approach to design, where the choice of materials and finishing touches plays an important role in creating a distinctive garment.

The combination of waxed canvas and suede gives the Escape a more individual appearance than a conventional textile motorcycle jacket.

ANTIQUE BRASS HARDWARE

The Escape is finished with antique brass metal buttons, adding an authentic heritage touch to its workwear-inspired design.

The aged metallic appearance complements the heavy canvas and suede detailing, creating a cohesive vintage aesthetic.

Rather than relying on oversized branding or elaborate decoration, the Escape uses its materials, textures and hardware to establish its character.

It's a restrained design that reflects the practical origins of traditional workwear.

SATIN LINING & EVERYDAY COMFORT

Inside, the Escape features a satin lining, providing a smoother surface against clothing worn underneath.

The lining contributes to the jacket's premium feel and helps make it comfortable to put on and remove.

Combined with the removable quilted layer and protective membrane, the interior construction provides a balance of comfort, insulation and practical functionality.

The result is a jacket designed to be worn regularly, whether heading out for a weekend ride or travelling through town.

PRACTICAL INTERNAL STORAGE

The Escape Jacket includes two internal pockets, providing useful storage for everyday essentials.

These pockets offer convenient space for smaller personal items such as a wallet, keys or other accessories.

The practical storage reflects the jacket's workwear origins, where functionality has always been an important part of the design.

VINTAGE WORKWEAR STYLE

The Escape's appeal extends beyond its motorcycle-specific features.

Its heavyweight waxed cotton construction, suede detailing and antique brass hardware give it the appearance of a traditional heritage workwear jacket.

This makes it particularly versatile for riders who prefer motorcycle clothing that doesn't look overly technical or sport-orientated.

The green colour-way works especially well with:

• Selvedge denim and protective motorcycle jeans

• Classic leather motorcycle boots

• Heritage workwear trousers

• Waxed cotton accessories

• Vintage-inspired motorcycle gloves

• Casual shirts and heavyweight knitwear

The jacket's understated styling allows it to transition naturally from the motorcycle to everyday activities.

DESIGNED FOR CLASSIC MOTORCYCLE CULTURE

The Age of Glory Escape Jacket is particularly well suited to riders of:

• Café racers

• Classic British motorcycles

• Scramblers

• Modern classic roadsters

• Vintage-inspired motorcycles

• Custom-built motorcycles

• Traditional urban motorcycles

Its authentic workwear appearance complements the character of these machines, while its certified protective construction makes it a practical choice for riding.

The Escape is ideal for those who appreciate the heritage of motorcycle clothing but want modern safety standards incorporated into a traditional design.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

Waxed cotton and suede require appropriate care to preserve their appearance and performance.

For routine maintenance:

• Remove surface dirt gently with a soft brush or damp cloth

• Avoid aggressive detergents and harsh cleaning chemicals

• Do not use solvents on the waxed cotton or suede

• Allow the jacket to dry naturally away from direct heat

• Follow the manufacturer's instructions when removing the quilted lining and armour

• Use only suitable waxed cotton care products where recommended by Age of Glory

• Check the manufacturer's care label before washing or treating the garment

Avoid machine washing or dry cleaning unless specifically permitted by the manufacturer's care instructions, as unsuitable cleaning methods may damage the wax finish, membrane or suede details.
