Meet the VIDEO CHERRY 651: a bold twist on the classic Perfecto

A slim-fit leather jacket that doesn’t just follow trends—it sets them. The VIDEO CHERRY 651 from Oakwood reimagines the iconic biker silhouette in a vibrant cherry red, crafted from supple sheep leather for a piece that’s as wearable as it is striking. No fur, no fuss—just clean lines, a modern cut, and a colour that demands attention. Designed for women who want their outerwear to do the talking, this jacket balances edge with elegance, making it a versatile choice for year-round styling.

Sheep leather: lightweight strength with a buttery feel

Sheep leather is prized for its softness and flexibility, and here it’s used to full advantage. Thinner and more pliable than cowhide, it moulds to the body without sacrificing durability, offering a jacket that moves with you rather than against you. The natural grain is subtle, giving the leather a smooth, almost velvety finish that feels luxurious against the skin. Over time, it will develop a unique patina, softening further while retaining its structure—a hallmark of quality leather that ages gracefully.

A slim fit that flatters without restricting

The slim-fit cut of the VIDEO CHERRY 651 is designed to accentuate the silhouette without compromising comfort. It’s tailored through the waist and sleeves, creating a streamlined look that pairs effortlessly with everything from jeans to dresses. The lack of bulk—no fur lining or heavy hardware—keeps the focus on the leather itself, making it a jacket that layers well under coats in winter or over lightweight knits in spring. It’s a piece that adapts to your wardrobe, not the other way around.

Cherry red: a colour with attitude

This isn’t just any red—it’s a deep, glossy cherry that leans into the rebellious spirit of the Perfecto while adding a contemporary twist. The shade is rich enough to stand out in a crowd but versatile enough to work with neutrals, pastels, or even other bold hues. It’s a colour that transitions seamlessly from day to night, whether you’re pairing it with black for a classic contrast or experimenting with tonal looks. And because it’s leather, the colour will deepen and evolve with wear, becoming even more personal to you.

Oakwood has carved out a niche in the leather jacket market by blending timeless designs with modern sensibilities. Founded on the principle that outerwear should be both stylish and functional, the brand draws inspiration from classic biker and aviator silhouettes but updates them with contemporary cuts, unexpected colours, and premium leathers. Each piece is crafted to last, with an emphasis on quality construction and materials that age beautifully. Oakwood’s collections prove that leather jackets don’t have to be one-dimensional—they can be as versatile as the women who wear them.
