The BMX boom wasn't just about the bikes—it was about the races, the tracks, the patches earned one weekend at a time. This all-original 1980s Crossroads Pro BMX jacket captures that era perfectly, complete with its original collection of California race patches from the golden age of BMX.


Description

Few sports created keepsakes quite like BMX in the mid-1980s. Every race, every state qualifier, every weekend spent chasing the next gate could end with another patch sewn onto a favorite jacket. Over time those patches became a personal record of miles traveled, races entered, and weekends well spent.

This original Sears-made Crossroads Pro BMX satin jacket tells exactly that story.

Finished in bright race-day red, the jacket features embroidered Crossroads Pro BMX lettering across the front, while the back is filled with eleven original California BMX race patches from 1986, representing tracks and state series events including Montclair, Fort Ord, Bakersfield, Gilroy, Lemoore, Live Oak, Sanger, Azusa, San Bernardino, Ventura, and more. Rather than decoration added years later, these patches feel like an authentic timeline of one rider’s season.

The lightweight satin nylon shell, cotton lining, rib-knit collar, cuffs and waistband, snap-front closure, and raglan sleeves deliver the unmistakable look of an American-made racing jacket from BMX’s most influential years. Whether you’re a collector of early BMX history, vintage racing apparel, or simply appreciate pieces that wear their story on the outside, this jacket is a remarkable survivor from one of California’s most exciting eras on two wheels.

Like great vintage, it isn’t simply about age—it’s about the life that’s already been lived.
