BECK® 302
Genuine Horsehide Riding Shirt

A riding shirt, not a jacket — 1.4mm front quarter horsehide in a straight-hem shirt silhouette with hidden snap front. Heavier hide than the jacket line; it wears like a jacket but moves like a shirt.
Description
The BECK® 302 is a horsehide riding shirt, not a motorcycle jacket — 1.4mm front quarter horsehide in a straight-hem shirt silhouette with hidden snap front and no center zipper. The heavier 1.4mm weight provides more protection per panel than the 1.3mm used in the BECK® jacket line; the shirt cut layers cleanly under a vest or patch cut and reads as a work shirt from a distance.
Two chest zippered drop-in pockets and two interior concealed carry pockets provide organized carry without visible hardware on the front panel. Covered snap cuffs. Hidden snap-down collar. Buffalo plaid flannel lining for warmth without bulk. Side slits prevent bunching when seated on the bike. Stitched with Perma Core thread by American & Efird (A&E). BECK®’s Northeaster Flying Togs label has produced horsehide riding gear in the USA since 1928. Lifetime Guarantee from Legendary USA. Made in the USA.

You’re looking at it
Before you ride.
Is it a shirt or a jacket?
A riding shirt — straight hem, hidden snap front, no center zipper. It wears like a jacket but moves and layers like a shirt.
Why is it 1.4mm when the jackets are 1.3mm?
The shirt silhouette has fewer panels, so BECK® uses a heavier hide — more protection per panel while staying light enough to layer.
Does it layer under a vest?
That's the design — the straight hem and snap front slide cleanly under a vest or patch cut.
How do I care for it?
Sparingly. Dry cloth for dust; a neutral conditioner once or twice a year. Test inside a pocket flap first.

Every Review
All of them. Unfiltered.
don't waste your time on cheap alternatives. the horsehide and quality of this piece is exceptional. won't find this quality anywhere for the price, it's horsehide after all. confirming a 5 star very happy. Also, I am a size 56 btw was worried I might of needed the custom but it fits true to size.
THANK YOU KIRK! APPRECIATE THE PICTURE AND REVIEW
This is a shirt, not a jacket, and that is why I bought it. Hidden snap front with no center zipper, and the buffalo plaid flannel lining keeps it warm without feeling bulky. I wear it under my club vest on spring and fall rides. Side slits keep it from bunching when I'm seated on the bike and the two chest drop in pockets hold my phone. The 1.4mm horsehide feels substantial and it fits like the size chart says.
These guys nailed it, their horsehide shirt is a unique piece, light enough to layer but still ultra tough.
Thank you for the review. The BECK horsehide shirt occupies a unique space between shirt and jacket, making it one of the most versatile pieces we offer.
A leather shirt in real horsehide is hard to find, and this one is done right. The weight is just enough. It wears like a jacket but moves like a shirt, really impressed with the quality.
We appreciate your detailed feedback. Finding a true horsehide leather shirt is rare these days, and we’re glad the balance of comfort, mobility, and durability stood out to you.
This has the old-school flying-togs look I wanted. size chart was accurate and the liner stays put instead of bunching around my wrists and armpits. I used Shop Pay installments, which made spending this much on a jacket a little easier.
the toughest riding shirt i ever owned FACTS.
quality, thickness and overall pattern are excellent. Reviews are accurate.
super high quality like most reviews I can certainly say it's an excellent addition to my gear
this is a serious riding shirt first time horsehide junkie and will never go back. Amazing fit quality totally there I am very happy with my purchase ty legendary usaa
This leather riding shirt is a beast love the horsehide absolutely high quality and great fit. Heavy weight for sure
What I love most about this horsehide riding shirt is the attention to detail. Flawless. Fits incredibly well.
Exactly the type of riding shirt I was looking for. Heavy and tough. Great price too for horsehide. like it very much.
The weight and thickness this is my new favorite leather riding shirt never had one in horsehide but WOW incredible.
this is a proper riding shirt, honestly never had one this high quality. Also I've paid double for horsehides in the past so thanks for keeping it real you guys rock
I have been meaning to write a review, because I have to say this is by far the best horsehide riding shirt out there. The quality, design and look are incredible. It's not fully broken in, but it's getting there and everytime I ride it molds more and more to me.
Dear Legendary USA,
Thank you so much for making this wonderful horsehide riding shirt. It's been a while since I made a new purchase in my very robust horsehide collection of jackets, vests and shirts. My BECK 302 is an instant favorite.
Thank you,
Billy
ok so you have sent 2 emails asking for a review. Now I feel bad so look I love the BECK 302 it literally is my new go to cover over my hoodie. I think that you should rip off the collar and do that neckless thing but yeah it's beyond great and once again love what ya'll doing - Brock
Superb riding shirt, my only issue was I received the wrong size and it added extra time because I needed it ASAP. superior quality and this is my vesy first BECK purchase.
I would like to say that this is really high quality and thoughtfully constructed. Exactly what I had in mind. I highly recommend this BECK 302. I am giving it a 5 star review, I love it. BTW, the reviews were very accurate fwiw
Ordered size 46 needed to exchange and size up as I was not thinking about the additional bulk of a hoodie. Glad I did. customer service easy breezy. thanks legendary USA. The horsehide btw makes this shirt, so unique and sturdy.
I don't write reviews, but I love this riding shirt so much everything from the quality, the pattern, the fit I even found the price compelling given it's horse hide. Thanks for the help with sizing Legendary
Great product with great discount offers yo make it affordable. Bought my horsehide Perfecto here as well as my Beck riding shirt. Awesome company. Go Legendary!!!
I am beyond impressed. the quality and feel of this horsehide piece is too good to be true. Didn't mind the week delay Legendary called and said they were insanely busy trying to make them as they got flooded with the release. Cant be more happy. thank you guys!
Hey there, Rich here I've been riding for over 40 years and the cool thing is I always had a vintage BECK riding shirt dating back well probably from the 50's or 60's. I took emasculate care of it and for it's age well nothing lasts forever. I finally put it to rest and actually hung it like a trophy in my living room. Not to mention I gained a bit of weight over the years and really couldn't fit into it anymore. So I saw the new BECK 302 from Legendaery and decided to give it a shot. I got the size (54) and it fits perfectly, the horsehide is exactly what I was looking for. Sure it's a modern version of what I had previously, but I can tell it was made with the same nostalgia as my previous one. The buffalo flannel plaid lining is a great touch, and I like how they went with the zipper chest pockets, not a huge fan of bulky traditional chest flap also like how it's hidden snap closures. I am giving it a 5 start because for the price, quality leather and fit I truly love it. Thanks for your time, Rich
I had zero expectations I had previously bought some POS first mfg riding shirt and it was garbage but when I saw the beck horsehide shirt I gave it a shot and thank god I did. it solves my problem of hating bulky jackets I like I can wear a heavy hoodie under this and ride in the wind and cold. amazing
Handsome and superb craftsmanship. Nice “thick” leather and robust. I’m average build. I’m a 32 waist, just about 38 inch chest. My arms are athletic type at 33 inch length. I’m 5’8”. I got size 40 and the fit is spot on ! You don’t find a leather shirt “jacket “like this often enough. I bought it for the urban style since I like to look good, even at 72 lol. Nice piece Beck and crew. This is Luis from the Bronx.
Dear Legendary USA,
Thank you very much for helping me with the correct sizing and seeing to it that I was happy with my purchase. I want to tell everyone that their BECK 302 is probably the finest leather riding short I ever owned. Just phenomenal craftsmanship.
ML&R,
Jason
almost a 5 stars because I thought it was in stock so ended up waiting a week and change, but the quality is amazing and I truly love the interior. Not my first riding shirt, but never had one in horsehide which is really special.
was very excited when they released this, have a few other BECKs (2 jackets and a vest). Perfect horsehide, not too soft, not hard just somewhere in between which I believe a riding shirt should be. Breaks in so nicely. What's there not to love about it?
arrived last week, wore it all weekend and I am giving it an easy five stars. My first horsehide riding shirt and it just fits perfect and exactly what I wanted as I don't like heavy jackets this is the perfect balance. I will definitely look to buy the BECK vest in the spring. Stay Safe, Gary
