A navy suede goat leather jacket that redefines effortless biker style

The LCSTEWARTS NAVY by Schott is a modern take on the classic motorcycle jacket, crafted from supple suede goat leather in a deep navy hue. This piece bridges the gap between rugged biker heritage and refined everyday wear, offering a versatile silhouette that adapts to any season. The regular cut ensures a balanced fit, neither too slim nor too oversized, making it a reliable layer for year-round styling.

Velvet-like texture meets motorcycle-inspired design

The jacket’s suede goat leather is chosen for its lightweight yet durable qualities, delivering a soft, velvety touch that sets it apart from traditional smooth leathers. The design stays true to biker roots with a classic stand-up collar secured by a button, a central zip closure for ease, and two flap pockets with button fastenings on the exterior. Inside, a zippered nylon pocket provides secure storage, while the nylon lining ensures comfort and breathability. Whether worn open over a simple tee or zipped up for a structured look, it effortlessly transitions from casual outings to more polished settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

This jacket is made from goatskin suede, known for its softness and durability. Over time, it develops a unique patina, softening further while maintaining its structure. The velvety texture may show slight wear in high-friction areas, adding character to the piece.

How should I care for the suede to maintain its appearance?

Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt and a specialised suede cleaner for stains. Avoid water exposure, as it can cause watermarks. Store it in a cool, dry place with a breathable dust bag to prevent moisture buildup.

Is the regular fit true to size or should I size up/down?

The regular fit is designed to accommodate most body types without being overly loose or tight. If you prefer a snug fit, consider sizing down, but if you plan to layer underneath, sizing up may provide more comfort.

What is the weight of the leather and how does it affect wearability?

Goatskin suede is lightweight yet resilient, making it comfortable for all-day wear. The material offers flexibility without sacrificing durability, ideal for both casual and structured outfits.

Can the jacket be worn in rainy conditions?

While the nylon lining provides some water resistance, the suede exterior is not fully waterproof. Light rain may not cause immediate damage, but prolonged exposure should be avoided to preserve the leather’s texture and colour.

How does the nylon lining contribute to the jacket’s functionality?

The nylon lining enhances breathability and comfort, reducing friction against clothing. It also adds a lightweight layer of insulation, making the jacket adaptable to varying temperatures.

Are the exterior pockets secure for carrying small items?

The two flap pockets with button closures provide secure storage for small essentials like keys or a wallet. The interior zippered pocket offers additional protection for valuables.
