Get the 'David Beckham' Look
David Beckham is not just a cool biker; he’s a cool guy full stop. Whether or not he takes fashion tips from Victoria, he always seems to look good on the bike.
He epitomises that effortless insouciance that suggests he’s simply thrown on what was lying around in the garage when he took the bike out. But like Dean, McQueen, Depp and all those other ineffably stylish guys, David knows that is takes a lot of effort to appear that blasé.
The good news for any biker, though, is that we’ve done all the hard work for you, meaning that you can get the look at the click of a mouse.
Helmet
David’s been seen around town wearing a helmet that doesn’t meet the EC safety standards, which means we don’t offer it, and we can’t recommend it. If Victoria finds out, by the way, she's going to be livid.
The closest approved helmet to the one he often wears is something like the Shoei Glamster 06 helmet. With its slightly retro look it can work on a real retro or a modern sit up bike. Of course, as with any Shoei helmet, we would offer David a Shoei PFS (personal fitting service) to make sure he gets the perfect fitting helmet!
Jacket
We all know that David has been seen wearing Belstaff jackets, a brand that makes truly gorgeous proper motorcycle wax cotton and leather jackets.
But we reckon that, deep down, David is more of a leather jacket kind of guy and that, if he were free to choose, he would probably go for something like the Belstaff Brooklands leather jacket. The burnt cuero colourway would be his favourite, we reckon.
Gloves
Some of the leather gloves from french brand Five gloves have David Beckham written all over them. Made from super-soft full grain leather that has been waxed and oiled for a vintage look, they nevertheless have all the modern technological advancements to offer full protection.
Pants
David’s a denim kind of guy and, if he knew about them, we really think he would appreciate the aesthetic and technical appeal of the Rokker Legend jeans.
Made from armalith, the Legend has been made to our spec by Rokker and is an amazingly comfortable but protective single layer riding jean.
We’re sure he’d go from them because of their slim-fit leg. These jeans (in 2026) now come with the amazing level 2 Diablo armour.
Boots
On the boot front we have to admit that we’re a little bit torn. We’re thinking that he would definitely ride in a proper riding boot, but probably a short one. For smart meetings and the best restaurants and shops, we’d be pointing him in the direction of Helstons' super-smart brogued Travel boot. But if he was playing it down, and meeting his mates in the Cow, then we’d say that he couldn’t go wrong with the Rokker Urban Racer.
