This is the leather jacket that quietly commands attention—without ever raising its voice.

The NORIS 2 CARRERA BROWN from Redskins isn’t just another brown leather jacket. It’s a piece that balances the rugged charm of a biker’s staple with the refined elegance of a tailored wardrobe. Crafted from supple, durable sheep leather, it’s designed to move with you, not against you. The slightly tapered shoulders and arms give it a modern silhouette, while the lapel collar—reminiscent of a classic shirt collar—adds a touch of sophistication. The front zip closure ensures a clean, streamlined look, and the snap-button side pockets offer both functionality and style. Adjustable zips at the wrists let you fine-tune the fit, and the crinkle cotton lining provides just enough structure without bulk. It’s the kind of jacket that doesn’t shout for attention but earns it effortlessly.

A jacket built for the long haul—because great leather only gets better with time.

Sheep leather is known for its softness and durability, and this jacket makes the most of both. The slightly glossy finish gives it a polished look, while the unlined construction keeps it lightweight and breathable—ideal for layering in cooler months or wearing solo when the weather is mild. The dark brown hue is rich and versatile, pairing just as well with jeans and boots as it does with tailored trousers and dress shoes. Whether you’re dressing it up or down, the NORIS 2 CARRERA BROWN adapts, making it a reliable choice for nearly any occasion.

Redskins has been a staple in the leather jacket scene since the 1980s, blending French flair with British-inspired designs. The brand is known for its ability to take classic styles—like the bomber, the biker, or the aviator—and infuse them with modern details that keep them relevant. Redskins jackets are built to last, often featuring high-quality leathers and thoughtful construction, but they’re also designed to be worn, not just admired. The brand’s philosophy is simple: great leather should be accessible, not just aspirational. That’s why you’ll find pieces that are as comfortable in a city café as they are on a weekend ride.

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of leather is used and how does it age over time?

This jacket is made from sheep leather, known for its softness and durability. Over time, it develops a rich patina, becoming even more supple and gaining character with wear. The natural oils in the leather help it resist cracking while maintaining its shape.

How should I care for the leather to maintain its finish?

To preserve the slightly shiny finish, avoid exposing the leather to excessive moisture or direct sunlight. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away dust and apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for smooth leathers every few months. Store it in a cool, dry place, ideally on a padded hanger.

Is the jacket warm enough for winter wear?

While the jacket has a cotton crinkle lining for added comfort, it is not heavily insulated. It provides moderate warmth, making it suitable for autumn and spring. For colder weather, layering with a sweater or thermal underneath is recommended.

How does the fit compare to a standard tailored jacket?

The cut is classic with a slight taper at the shoulders and arms, offering a modern yet comfortable fit. It is not as structured as a tailored blazer but more fitted than a loose bomber. The zippered cuffs allow for a personalised fit around the wrists.

Can the jacket be worn in the rain?

Sheep leather is naturally water-resistant to a degree, but it is not fully waterproof. Brief exposure to light rain should not damage it, but prolonged exposure or heavy rain may cause water spots or stiffness. A waterproof spray designed for leather can offer additional protection.

What is the weight of the leather?

Sheep leather is lightweight compared to cowhide or buffalo leather, making this jacket comfortable for everyday wear. The exact weight can vary slightly, but it typically ranges between 0.8 to 1.2 millimetres in thickness, offering a balance of durability and flexibility.
