The “Durable Synthetic Biker Coat” in Cyberpunk 2077 is a fantastic piece of cyberpunk fashion. This biker coat perfectly embodies the badass longcoat aesthetic that’s become a genre staple. Many players, myself included, instantly recognize its appeal. However, there’s always been a minor detail that felt a little off for some: the brown leather accents on the otherwise black coat.

The All-Black Biker Coat Mod: A Simple Yet Effective Retexture
For those who prefer a more uniform look, or simply aren’t fans of the brown patches, there’s a simple solution. By retexturing the coat, we can eliminate the brown and create a seamless, all-black biker coat. Using the 010 Editor, I’ve done just that, transforming the original design into a more consistently dark and sleek version.

This mod is a straightforward retexture, meaning no game meshes are altered. It’s compatible with both male and female V, and won’t affect other items that use the same mesh. It’s a purely cosmetic change focused on enhancing the visual appeal of this already iconic biker coat.
Installation Guide for Your Biker Coat Mod
To implement this all-black biker coat retexture, follow these simple steps:
- Install Cyberpunk 2077 Texture Override: First, you’ll need the Cyberpunk 2077 Texture Override mod. This is essential for custom textures to load correctly in the game and prevents potential graphical issues. Download and install this mod first.
- Installation: Copy the “archive” folder from the biker coat mod download directly into your main Cyberpunk 2077 game directory.
Finding the Durable Synthetic Biker Coat In-Game
To use this retexture, you’ll need to acquire the Durable Synthetic Biker Coat in Cyberpunk 2077. Here’s how you can find it:
- Stylishly in Rancho Coronado: You can purchase the biker coat at the Stylishly clothing vendor in Rancho Coronado. It spawns up to Epic quality.
- Voodoo Boys in Pacifica: The coat can also randomly drop from Voodoo Boys enemies in Pacifica, also up to Epic quality.
- Virtual Atelier Mod (Recommended): Given that Patch 1.6 removed this item from vendors, the easiest and most reliable method is to use the Jinguji Personal Shopping Service – Virtual Atelier mod. This allows you to purchase the coat in-game regardless of vendor availability.
While cheat commands can also spawn the item, it’s generally not recommended as it may result in a low-level item with poor stats.
Black vs. “Natural” Leather Options
For those who like the idea of an all-black biker coat but prefer a slightly more textured look, there’s also a “natural” version available. This version retains a subtle brown undertone to give the leather a more natural appearance, while still moving away from the original distinct brown patches. While the full black version is my personal preference for a truly sleek biker coat, the “natural” option provides a nice alternative.
This simple biker coat retexture mod offers a subtle but significant improvement to the “Durable Synthetic Biker Coat”, making it an even more desirable piece of cyberpunk apparel for your V. Upgrade your style and embrace the all-black aesthetic!
