The Dehen 1920 Full-Throttle Moto-Sweater in Black is the newest style in their lineup of classic sweaters, and an optimal choice if you love the idea of Dehen sweaters and shawls, but need something softer on the skin. These are lined with a silky satin for an easy-on and smooth to the touch interior. Though not true to the original Motorcycle Sweaters of the early 1900s, Dehen has taken the liberty to respond to the demands of a full-zip Moto-Sweater. Built using the same four-end heavyweight jersey knit as on their Shawls, this Moto-Sweater features a heavy duty 2-way brass zipper and reinforced interior elbow patches for functionality. The Full-Throttle Moto Sweater is an excellent tweener for when you don't want to go full shawl, but still want a nice classic sweater to warm things up.
Note: Generally runs TTS for a modern fit (not super slim, but not overly relaxed). You can also size down one for a slimmer fitting sweater-jacket if you primarily intend to wear with only a single thinner layer underneath. Note that sizing down can make it a tad short and also feel much slimmer / snug through the arms.
Model: 6'0" and 175 lbs (currently closer to 170 lbs) wearing size M for a comfortable fitting sweater-jacket that has ample room to move around and add some slightly thicker layers over the t-shirt.
