A bold red leather jacket that doesn’t just turn heads—it tells a story.

The Kansas Red from Cityzen is a leather jacket cut from sheep leather, a material known for its balance of suppleness and durability. The deep red hue isn’t just a colour choice; it’s a statement, one that nods to the rebellious spirit of classic motorcycle jackets while keeping a modern, streamlined silhouette. This isn’t a jacket that fades into the background—it’s designed to stand out, whether you’re riding through the city or stepping into a casual gathering.

Built for movement, designed for style.

The skinny fit of the Kansas Red is intentional. It’s cut close to the body, not to restrict, but to accentuate the natural lines of the leather while allowing for layering underneath. The jacket is thick enough to provide warmth in cooler months, yet breathable enough to wear through transitional seasons. The two interior pockets offer practical storage without bulk, and the adjustable waist tabs let you fine-tune the fit for comfort or a more tailored look. The stand-up collar, a signature of biker-inspired designs, adds an edge while protecting against the wind.

Leather that ages with character.

Sheep leather is softer and more pliable than cowhide, but don’t mistake that for fragility. This jacket is built to last, with a natural resilience that develops a unique patina over time. The more you wear it, the more it adapts to your movements and takes on a lived-in charm. The red dye will soften subtly with exposure to light and wear, creating a one-of-a-kind finish that can’t be replicated. It’s a jacket that doesn’t just age—it evolves.

Cityzen is the in-house label of Cuir-City, a brand with a sharp focus on delivering leather jackets that balance quality and accessibility. While they don’t have the century-long heritage of some luxury houses, they’ve carved out a reputation for sourcing well-crafted leathers and translating them into contemporary designs. Cityzen’s approach is straightforward: no unnecessary frills, just well-made leather pieces that fit into everyday wardrobes.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

This jacket is made from sheep leather, known for its softness and durability. Over time, it develops a rich patina, especially with the red colour, which deepens and gains character with wear.

How should I choose the right size for a skinny fit?

A skinny fit is designed to sit close to the body. If you prefer a snug fit, choose your usual size. For a slightly looser fit, consider sizing up, especially if you plan to layer thicker garments underneath.

Is the lining removable for cleaning?

The lining, made of cotton and polyester, is not removable. It’s best to spot clean it with a damp cloth and avoid machine washing to preserve the jacket’s structure.

How do I maintain the red colour over time?

To keep the red vibrant, use a leather conditioner specifically designed for coloured leathers every 6-12 months. Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight, which can cause fading.

Can this jacket be worn in rainy conditions?

While the leather is naturally water-resistant, it’s not fully waterproof. For rainy conditions, apply a leather waterproofing spray before wear and reapply as needed to maintain protection.

What’s the thickness of the leather?

The sheep leather used is thick and substantial, offering both warmth and durability, while still remaining flexible enough for comfortable wear.
