Sometimes you want to break out and do things differently. The Bandito Riding Shirt is for people who aren't afraid to go their own way. Inspired by early dirt and board track racer gear. This edgy riding shirt will stand out in a crowd and keep you protected if things go sideways!
Based on our popular California Riding Shirt, The Bandito is crafted from premium, American made, 12oz raw canvas. The black-and-white striped sleeves were specially made for Tobacco so you won't soon see anything like this. Canvas is breathable and keeps you cool when riding in the sun, while still giving you a windbreak for those cooler night rides. This lightweight jacket is made right here in California by skilled tradesmen and will last a very long time. Complete with a bandana back liner and moisture wicking sleeve liners you will love every mile you put on it.
The canvas shell is your first line of defense against harsh the grind of the pavement but the Bandito also comes with an inner lining made from Dupont™ Kevlar® It's the toughest fiber in the world and is resistant to abrasion, puncture, and heat. Plus you can add D3O® armor to your Bandito to avoid those hard knocks! Ride with the confidence that you are protected for whatever comes your way!

United StatesGreat look. It’s light enough to wear in hot weather. Only gripe is at this price point, you would expect the thread for the armor pockets on the sleeve to match the corresponding colors of the (striped) sleeves.
United StatesIt’s not a shirt, it’s a jacket. It definitely looks awesome but functionality isn’t 5 stars. The sleeves are tight even on my skinny arms, especially where it bends at the elbows. And armor wasn’t included. Pretty expensive piece but like I said at least it looks cool.
United StatesI bought a pair of pants for $400. I bought a riding jacket for $400. It’s my fourth one I have two sets of green and black like the clothing. Don’t like the fact I did not get my free T-shirts twice cheated out of them.
United StatesI did not know what to expect. To say that I was surprised with this jacket is an understatement. My Lady is a seamstress, and she gave very high marks on the quality and workmanship of this jacket. I keep looking at the pants now. THIS is the clothing business to buy from!!!
United StatesI ordered the Bandito riding shirt as a christmas gift for my husband. It arrived witht he collar snaps broken. Tobacco was wonderful in getting it swapped out. I even forgot to add the free gloves to my initial order and they added them to the exchanged shirt no questions asked.the short itself is great! the material quality feels heavy duty. I have no concerns with sending huby out on the bike wearing this.Thanks Tobacco for a fantastic product and an even better customer experience!
United StatesI really like the look, comfort and fit of this shirt. I wish it was waterproof and the cuffs had two snap options. Performance on the bike was very similar to my flannel. Although the Bandito takes a bit more wind up the cuffs. Delivery was challenging! I waited 4 weeks and then received the wrong shirt. Then, another 3 weeks passed until my Bandito arrived.
United StatesGot the custom screen print so took a little longer, a month. Came and looks great, get many compliments so far. Missing a clasp so I do get a draft when riding. Couold use some more inserts for protection only has the elbow, do not want to find out how it would hold up in an incident lol. Over all more of a style over function jacket. Will have to see about getting the missing button added.
United StatesLets get to it, this 'shirt' (definitely more of a jacket) took 5 weeks from purchase to delivery... My main gripe here is with the timeline, very few updates from the support email, only after I reached out did receive any updates at all (about 2.5 weeks after purchase date) I was assured they were with the screenprinter, at 3 weeks I followed up again to hear that they were back from printing and going to be shipped the following day, awesome, next day came and went with no updates, so I followed up another day later and learned it was not in that last batch, but would be finished soon, certainly frustrating- the jacket finally shipped after I asked them to cancel the order if it didn't ship that week. So FYI everybody reading this: if you order with the trademark screenprint add about 1 month+ to your wait time. They are batched with the screenprinter and will take lots of extra time is what I learned Forgetting all that: the jacket is of high quality, no doubt about it, its a fresh fit too, I am 5,11 and fit a Large perfectly- I am excited to break it in and give it the test of time- but seriously, a $360 dollar jacket, and no pads are included - you'll have to go buy them separately, really disappointing for sure. If youre not in a rush and are fine to buy armor separately; go for it.
United StatesOutstanding quality and design!
United Statesthe shirt is extremely well constructed, and the design details are appreciated. i have white/black striped sleeve on black body, with silk screen emblem (highly recommended). garment well stitched, great inset lining. took first 50 mile ride with it today, nice at 80 degree temp, many unsolicited compliments at coffee stop. very impressed with quality, will consider other Tobacco products...
