Vintage racing jackets in particular are a timeless piece you need to have in your closet right now, where everyone is taking style notes from the race track.

Gigi Hadid even launched her own racing-inspired clothing line with Tommy Hilfiger in 2018, as did other brands like Rihanna's Fenty x Puma, Dior, and Ralph Lauren.

It's a trend that's quickly taken over the fashion world, and we can see why, because these jackets are effortlessly cool and very, very fun.

So, we've rounded up some of our favourite vintage racing jackets that you can shop in Australia right now, to give your closet what it needs.
