Fantastic, high-quality jacket. Super-fast delivery to Norway.

1958 jacket waxed brown

Really pleased with my new Goldtop 1958 jacket, I wanted a traditional looking leather jacket with the added bonus of armour protection. I went one size up as they are a close fit, it will give slightly as you wear it in and also enable enough room to fit a jumper as well for the cold days. The appeal of this jacket is that it can be worn casually as well without screaming bike jacket. Great value for money from a heritage brand.

Great Jacket but poor Qualitiy and Customer Service

The jacket itself is fantastic; however, I am unfortunately very disappointed with the quality and customer service. I have only worn the jacket three times myself. Regrettably, damage has already appeared on the inside of the sleeves. According to Goldtop Customer Service, I was responsible for causing this damage; however, I neither wear jewelry while riding nor tuck my gloves inside the jacket. Even if I did, such damage should not occur after being worn only three times. I therefore cannot recommend the Goldtop brand, even though their jackets are very beautiful.

Thank you for the review, and we're pleased the jacket has lived up to expectations.

Your sleeve lining shows abrasion damage caused by repeated friction against an external object - not an indication of a faulty product.

In the rare event that a customer does receive a faulty product, we cover return postage and repair or replace the jacket.

Very best,

Charlie, Goldtop

58 Jacket

I was looking for a rockers jacket and this one was for me perfect match. Its a heavy jacket and Great looking. You can use it even when you not riding. Cool look. I mesured with my body armor and followed the mesure calculation system. The inner lining has a cool gold color. Only thing with it is that tread in lining will loose in future, but thats is standard on all bike jackets. A good thing is that pattern on bottom of the waist, is good to open up and stitch on the ace cafe patch and sew it together. Well is a smashing jacket if you looking for a british jacket. Cheers Matt from Sweden

Perfect 👌🏼

Purchased this jacket as a day to day jacket as I already own a 76 cafe racer jacket which I totally love, but being a fair weather rider I wanted a jacket that I could wear as a “normal jacket” that looks good and not quite so bikerish as the 76.
The clean styling of the 58 fits the bill perfectly with the same quality and attention to detail as you would expect from Goldtop. I have already received a couple of compliments on it, and I’ve only had it three days!!
I could go on about the quality of the jackets including the wonderful smell of the leather! But it’s already well documented!

If you’re considering one, just do it! You won’t be disappointed!!

Now saving up for one in brown!! 😊
Good work as always Goldtop.
