Sandstorm GT R Leather Motorcycle Racing Jacket

Sand tan with charcoal and bronze. The Sandstorm GT R is the desert-toned jacket in the Zeesmoto® R range — a light, warm body colour that sits closer to adventure and rally gear than to circuit leathers, on a sport chassis.

Construction

• Genuine leather outer in sand tan with charcoal and bronze panelling
• Articulated sleeves with flexible stretch zones
• Reinforced shoulder, elbow and forearm areas
• Perforated and airflow-focused panels integrated into the design
• Secure front closure and adjustable waist tabs
• Lower rear connection-zip construction

Why a light body in hot weather

A pale jacket absorbs meaningfully less radiant heat than a black one standing at a set of lights in full sun. The difference is small while you are moving and very noticeable when you are not, which is the argument for sand tan on a jacket used in hot, bright conditions. Combined with the perforated panels, it is the most heat-tolerant colourway in the range.

Tan hides dust, not grease

A useful quirk: sand tan is close in tone to road dust, so the dry dirt that makes a black jacket look neglected barely registers here. What it does show is oil and chain fling — dark marks on a light ground. So it looks good longer between washes and needs prompt attention when something actually stains it.

Fit and sizing

Eight sizes, EU 46 / US 36 through EU 60 / US 50. Fitted race cut, shaped for a forward riding position with a short front hem and long sleeves. Measure your chest over one base layer and compare against the size chart rather than ordering by shirt size.

Care

Wipe clean using a soft damp cloth. Air dry away from direct heat. Use a cleaner intended for light-coloured leather and keep it away from tinted conditioners, which will blotch a tan hide permanently. Deal with oil marks quickly rather than letting them set.
