About the original
The Supreme/Ducati/Dainese Racing Jacket is a perforated cowhide leather motorcycle jacket built by Dainese to the same construction standard as the brand's Racing-line track jackets, with a stand collar, aerodynamic back hump, stretch panels at the shoulders and elbows, and pockets for back and chest protectors. Dainese was founded in Molvena, Italy in 1972 by Lino Dainese and supplies leathers to MotoGP and World Superbike riders. The SS24 three-way collab released May 30, 2024 in red with Supreme, Ducati, and Dainese logos co-branded across the chest and sleeves, and retailed at $1,990. It is a competition-grade garment, not a fashion jacket: the same platform as Dainese's Racing 4 perforated leather jacket.
About Ducati

The company began building motorcycles in 1946 with the Cucciolo, a 48cc clip-on engine for bicycles, and later pioneered the Desmodromic valve system adopted across its sport lineup. Current production includes the Panigale, Streetfighter, Monster, and Multistrada families, powered by L-twin and V4 engines. Ducati competes in MotoGP and World Superbike. Supreme's collaboration produced apparel and accessories under the official Ducati Corse racing identity.
