The same company that allowed motorcycle enthusiasts to ride in the role of superheroes and movie icons is ready to take bikers to a galaxy far far away.

Famous for its leather motorcycle riding suites replicating comic book heroes Batma, Wolverine and Iron Man, as well as the science fiction movie character Tron, UD Replicas feels the force as its rides into Star Wars lore to produce its version of the iconic Stormtrooper.

The company stays with what it knows as UD Replicas renders their version of the backbone of the imperial army in leather. For those that may not know, the Stormtroopers are the evil empire’s legions, a mass of menacing power in their awe-inspiring armor.

Coming white or black, the uniforms have been created using form-molded leather with each rounded segment, every chiseled and beveled edge promising to perfectly replicates the look of the on-screen armor.

The dreamer behind UDReplicas and parent company Universal Designs Ltd. is David Pea, a fashion designer and leather craftsman who creates screen-accurate replica garments based on some of the most enduring heroes, and in this case, villains in popular culture.

Motorcycle suit or movie?

“Since these are screen-accurate replicas, officially licensed by their respective studios, our research and development process is uncompromising,” says Pea.

Formed painstakingly from the finest leathers and materials, Pea’s designs are functional works of art, never to be confused with traditional costumes. With the addition of Kevlar and other CE-approved body armor and protective features, each garment is a fully-functional protective motorcycle suit, bringing a unique style to riders never seen before.

Each Stormtrooper suit comes complete with built-in CE-approved body armor to fully protect the motorcycle rider.

Details Include:

Incredible attention to detail, featuring form molded details like never before.

Raised rib detailing on the sleeves, shoulders, legs, torso and midsection perfectly replicating the look of rigid armor.

Adjustable forearms, biceps, thighs and shin leather armor allow for a personalized ‘custom’ body fit.

Waist belt is part of the jacket and not removable. Cleverly hidden is the main front zipper which has 3 main access points providing function, while allowing the main torso armor to be uncompromised and true to what was seen on screen.

Snap buttons on the cuffs and wrist zippers.

Jacket and Pants zip together at the waist essentially converting this to a one-piece body suit.

Removable quilted cotton lining.

CE-approved body armor in the shoulders, forearms/elbow, back spine protector, thighs and knee/shin armor is standard for riders but is easily removed for day-to-day wear.

Made from grade-A cowhide.

As with all of UD Replicas creation, craftsmanship doesn’t come cheap. The entire uniform can set motorcycle enthusiasts back $1,200 and the supply is limited. Imperial bikers will have to preorder soon as sales will be ending on January 31st 2012.

The finished product is promised to be shipped in the second quarter of 2012.
