Timeless biker elegance,

The RITZ NOIR 501 by Oakwood is a masterclass in balancing classic motocyclist style with modern femininity. Crafted from supple lambskin leather, this jacket embodies effortless sophistication with its slim fit silhouette, sleek mandarin collar, and signature double-zip closure that runs all the way up to the neckline. The attention to detail is evident in the functional yet stylish elements: four zipped pockets (two on the chest, two on the hips), adjustable waist tabs with press studs, and reinforced shoulder, waist, and cuff inserts for structure and durability. Designed for year-round wear, the RITZ NOIR 501 features a lightweight, unlined construction that makes it ideal for transitional seasons. The body is lined with a breathable 50% cotton and 50% polyester blend, while the sleeves are fully lined in 100% polyester for ease of movement. An interior zipped pocket provides secure storage for essentials. The lambskin leather is thin yet resilient, offering a soft drape that moulds to the body while maintaining its shape over time. Whether paired with jeans and boots for a casual weekend look or layered over a dress for evening wear, this jacket transitions seamlessly from day to night. Oakwood’s commitment to quality is reflected in the RITZ NOIR 501’s construction. The lambskin is carefully selected for its fine grain and natural suppleness, ensuring a luxurious feel that improves with age. The jacket’s slim fit is designed to flatter without restricting movement, with a cinched waist that accentuates the silhouette. The mandarin collar adds a contemporary twist to the classic biker style, while the double-zip closure allows for versatile styling—worn fully zipped for a sleek, streamlined look or partially unzipped to reveal a hint of the lining beneath. The adjustable waist tabs ensure a customisable fit, making this jacket a versatile addition to any wardrobe.

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of leather is used and how does it feel?

This jacket is made from lambskin leather, known for its fine grain, softness, and lightweight feel. It offers a smooth texture and drapes elegantly, making it comfortable to wear while maintaining durability.

How does the slim fit cut differ from a regular fit?

The slim fit is tailored to follow the body’s contours closely, with a cinched waist and snug sleeves. It provides a modern, streamlined silhouette compared to a regular fit, which offers more room and a looser drape.

Is the lining warm enough for colder weather?

The body lining is a blend of 50% cotton and 50% polyester, offering moderate warmth, while the sleeves are lined with 100% polyester for lightweight insulation. It’s suitable for mild to cool conditions but may require layering in colder temperatures.

Can the waist be adjusted for a better fit?

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

Avoid exposing the leather to excessive moisture or direct sunlight. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away dust and apply a leather conditioner occasionally to keep it supple. Store it in a cool, dry place, ideally on a padded hanger.

Are the zipped pockets secure for carrying small items?

Yes, the jacket includes four external zipped pockets—two on the chest and two on the sides—as well as an internal zipped pocket, all designed to keep small items secure and easily accessible.

Does the jacket develop a patina over time?
