Julian Casablancas’ black leather biker jacket in the Daft Punk track Instant Crush is the kind of piece that immediately tells you everything about his vibe. Known for his laid back yet effortlessly cool stage presence, Julian brings that same energy into the music video, where the jacket works as both armor and attitude. It taps into the rock and roll tradition that has always surrounded him, but also blends seamlessly with the futuristic and romantic tone Daft Punk is known for. The jacket feels like a perfect match for the collaboration—part gritty, part dreamy, and all about leaving a lasting impression.
The design leans on classic biker jacket DNA with its polished black leather, asymmetrical front zipper, wide lapels, and metal hardware that give it that unmistakable edge. It pulls from the origins of biker style in mid 20th century counterculture, a design that has always symbolized rebellion and individuality. What makes this one significant is how it ties into the visual storytelling of the video, grounding the surreal setting with something timeless and familiar. For fans, this jacket is versatile—you can wear it at concerts, nights out, or even as a casual statement piece when you want that mix of rock star energy and Daft Punk’s otherworldly cool.
