The Mudlarker was an update of the late 40’s Roamer wax-coated jacket. Hitting the Lewis range in 1960, the Mudlarker brought some nice new innovations which were designed to tackle the ever-present problems of cold winds and water ingression. The chief problem for motorcyclists, which other brands missed, was how to keep draughts and water from entering the sleeve and the Patented Aviakit double cuff was the answer. Meanwhile, two-way front zipper allowed the front to be opened from the bottom whilst the rider was seated and a drawstring around the hem kept out drafts. This new version is made of a heavier grade of waxed cotton currently used by other brands. |
